Eco-conscious clothing is a growing trend in the fashion industry and so there will be not one, but two fashion show on the topic. Both are on Saturday, May 3 in the Grandstand building on the State Fair Grounds during the Living Green Expo.

1. Eco-Fashion Show,1:30 p.m. on the music stage at the Living Green Expo, free
Featuring clothes from Birch Clothing, Goodwill, My Green Closet, Naturally Bamboo Clothing, Patagonia, Ten Thousand Villages and Wildrose Farms Organic Cottons.

2. Second Runway, 8 p.m. ($10 tickets)
Local designers are remaking clothing found at Goodwill stores. Clever! We’ll see if they can put a clever, non-recycled looking spin on the vintage duds.
