Along with Daniel Silverstein, the Ethical Writers Coalition (EWC) hosted an intimate discussion with the prominent zero waste fashion designer at his studio in New York.

Attended by the fashion set--including students, industry movers-and-shakers, and the media--the discussion featured Daniel Silverstein in conversation with fellow EWC co-founder Juliette Donatelli of spades + siLK.

Following the discussion, attendees shopped the collection while sipping organic wine in cups and straws provided by Susty Party and enjoying mini cupcakes, courtesy of the Little Cupcake Bakeshop.
