Overview

In short vignettes tied to the rhythms of the seasons, Kate Fletcher, fashion and sustainability pioneer, explores interrelationships between clothing and the natural world in this first volume of Fletcher's Almanac. Writings and predictions for each month feature nature, not as the scenery against which fashion stories unfold, but the main event, and the connection of fashion and nature, the story. It has been said that fashion speaks capitalism. In these entries it speaks another tongue, the language of the earth. A beautifully illustrated pocket-sized book to take with you on your forays into nature. This will be a limited edition, with the second volume of Fletcher's Almanac coming next year.
