As a longtime champion of environmental causes and sustainable fashion, Tonne Goodman—legendary stylist, former Vogue fashion director, current Vogue sustainability editor—has always been my North Star on what to buy, where to buy it, when to buy it, and how to wear it. It doesn’t hurt that she is one of the chicest women I’ve ever met, and I idolize her personal style as much as I do her work for both Vogue and our planet. With Tonne’s book, Point of View, coming out last year, we thought a joyful way to talk about the future of fashion would be to look back to some of Tonne’s greatest shoots for Vogue and breathe new life into the looks by shopping them out from sustainable brands. This is a celebration of timelessness—good style is forever, as are great wardrobe basics—and we already know Tonne’s edit will stand the test of time.

THEN:
“This shoot was all about the alter ego. The clothes all related to one another, two sides of the same coin fashion-wise,” Tonne says looking over the main fashion story of Vogue’s January 2012 issue. The picture we’ve landed on is of Amber Valletta and Shalom Harlow in their finest whites amid a field of flowers, which is giving me and Tonne serious wedding vibes. “Amber and Shalom hadn't worked together in awhile. We were in Long Island, you can see a greenhouse in the background, and we stumbled upon this amazing garden. They came together in this moment to become one of the most divine couples ever,” Tonne states, delightedly.
NOW:
Summer is nearly over and while weddings have greatly changed in shape and form due to Covid-19, celebrating friends and family is still very much on the agenda and this image has us in the mood for love. Bridal looks, and weddings in general, don’t often conjure up thoughts of sustainability. Wedding dresses are often viewed as something you wear once and stash away. But, in this new world of digital weddings, we think it’s a great time to re-think attire as much as the event. With online platforms like Matches and Net-a-Porter launching bridal capsules from some of our favorite ready-to-wear designers, bridal is more accessible and modern than ever. This image, which might not have started as a wedding shoot, is the perfect example of finding a modern, white look you love whether it’s a sharp suit, a romantic dress, or a Zoom-ready top. And if you aren’t getting ready to tie the knot, these crisp, bright pieces are the perfect end-of-summer pick-me-ups for any – and many – big days ahead.
Diving into Matches’ bridal capsule, we instantly fall for this modern, romantic sustainable wedding dress from Germanier – a leader in fashion’s upcycling space. This upcycled satin and crystal-embellished gown with perfectly-placed soft ruffles, is ready for a party. Pair with these not-too-silver, not-too-gold classic flats, from Aera – a brand that not only strives to use the most eco-friendly friendly materials for their shoes but also scientifically measures each pair of shoes for their environmental impact, and then commits to offset said impact by 110 percent.
This forever-suit comes direct from Stella McCartney, a pioneer in both ethical and sustainable fashion. A part of Net-a-Porter’s bridal capsule collection, wear it as a suit or separates to your wedding and then far, far beyond! It's a great alternative to a sustainable wedding dress without loosing the eco-friendly part.
Last but not least – the jewelry. Monica Viander’s newly-launched collaboration, with Doina Coibanu, features 100 percent recycled materials and future heirlooms, like this modern intertwined eternity band. Equally timeless is Anna Sheffield’s vintage-inspired, engagement-ready ring, which is made from recycled gold and conflict-free stones.
