Amy Tucker, 38, Seattle, WA. A Taurus who loves art and luxury (including really good chocolate and great clothes); an artist obsessed with nature, cups and consumerism; Seattle Art Museum board member and president of the Contemporary Art Council; yogini; snow boarder; fledging guitar player; founder and CEO of Matter Group, a company focused on sustainability; and creator of Xeko, an eco-adventure game and eco-toys for kids; Amy’s interests and fashion needs run diverse and deep. Having been on a three-year mission to transition her wardrobe to 100% “eco-friendly,” retiring old items in favor of Green Festival and local fashion finds, the apparel diet offers an interesting test—can Amy walk the green walk without new bamboo outfits and organic cotton to back her up? And just when eco-fashion actually has beautiful and interesting fashions to offer? Confronted by the apparel diet, these are the demons Amy’s wrestling with… who knows what skeletons will jump out of this eco-fashionista’s closet.
