Luxury designer Christos Furs creates new biodegradable fashions
Fashion and luxury fueled by a quest to help recycle discarded material will be on display at this year's 20th anniversary fashion show at 6 p.m. Tuesday, May 6, at The Empress, 200 E. Lake St. in Addison.
Christos Furs, staying true to his heritage of luxurious fur design, debuts an earth-conscious new collection that incorporates plastics, metal, repurposed umbrellas, and biodegradable materials — a powerful step toward sustainable luxury.
This is a one-of-a-kind fashion experience. This milestone event honors Christos Furs' legacy while unveiling the next chapter, where high fashion meets environmental consciousness.
Christos Koutsouras, owner and master designer behind Christos Furs, said, “I design with the environment in mind. Fashion and passion work in harmony in my designs.”
Christos Furs and Leathers, an international brand, creates all its designs in Chicagoland, proving that international-level designs thrive with local craftsmanship
This extraordinary runway event will showcase breathtaking garments crafted from unexpected and repurposed elements: discarded bicycle chains transformed into purses. Rugs and neck ties, and everyday materials like plastic water bottles, umbrellas, and towels are artfully blended with soft leather and luxurious furs.
The result: stunning, one-of-a-kind pieces that fuse innovation, sustainability, and high style, and contribute to a cleaner environment in a huge way
