    Eco Fashion: Interview with Julie Dicterow of Cri De Coeur

    C ri de Coeur ||style conscious with a conscience :: ethical contemporary fashion|| MG: When you decided to create shoes in an ethically responsible way did you get any resistance from those around you? JD: I think there is a resistance to non-leather goods in this industry when presenting a designer quality shoe that is made of vegan products. I think that we are filling the void for those who seek out quality, but also want to make conscious choices that they can live with.

    F rom time to time there's an urge to review a libation. We've stuck to reviews that centered on organic , eco-concious and local economy. I was recently at a party with the Triple Cities Hiking Club . This venerable and esteemed group dates back to 1947. We all traveled to   Allegheny State Park  - where it snowed beautifully this weekend.
