Posted by Mittie Cheatwood on Monday, May 13, 2024

Throw away all your notions that vegan fashion means Birkenstocks with socks and long broomstick skirts. Nikki Green's 100% vegan luxury line proves that you can love animals and help save the planet — all while looking runway ready. Founded just over six months ago, this Houston-based company offers gorgeous ready-to-wear gowns, tops, pants, and denim cut to fit a woman's curves. In fact, everything in the collection has been designed with founder Dominique Side's hourglass figure in mind.

Detail is everything at Nikki Green. From hand-sewn seams to custom hardware, the company brings chic to a new generation of environmentally conscious shoppers. Choose from emerald green military-inspired satin jackets, bodices, and skorts, or embrace your inner JLo with a flowing black lace jumpsuit or a rhinestone-dotted nude mesh hoodie. This debut collection spans a gamut of styles, textures, and shapes.

What's more, Nikki Green is the first Black woman-owned vegan fashion brand combining veganism, sustainability, and haute couture. In an exclusive interview with The List at Vegan Fashion Week in Los Angeles, Side's long-term stylist and the brand's designer Christian Allen said Nikki Green will continue to build on this regenerative ethos, sourcing plant-based synthetic fabrics and using cactus leather for shoes and other accessories. Side added, "Every step of the process, from design to production to packaging, is responsibly sourced and centered on compassion." Doing good never looked so fine.
