GREATEST FRIEND
Vintage & Thoughtful Makers
Greatest Friend is a newly launched web shop offering found natural fibre clothing and textiles as well as styling services. This global resale business was originated in New York City in 2009, and is now based at 112 Ocean View Road, Waiheke Island, NZ.
Angela is a New Zealander who has returned home after 20 years living and working across the U.S in both the music and fashion industries -with a passion for sustainable living practises and a better universal understanding of the weight of production (& in NZ, import and trade) has on our natural resources.
“There is no need to feel guilty buying clothes, It’s so naturally enjoyable! - It’s the trans global corporations who are to feel guilty, not the consumer…. although we could all make steps to learn a bit more about who actually makes our purchases and what donating them actually means”.
In the meantime, the new web shop has opened at http://www.shopgreatestfriend.com with the Equator Collection: A thoughtful series of garments paying homage to a hemispheric shift. One that she feels both personally with her move home, but most importantly within the global fashion industry and consumer culture we are in.
Greatest Friend has found pieces that date back to the turn of the century, as well as new pieces by transparent designers such as Penny Sage, Lela Jacobs and Ovna Ovich.
