Dream Designs Co Ltdopen
Fashion Designers in Vancouver

For over a quarter of a century Dream Designs has been creating well-made, sustainable products in Vancouver, Canada. "There are always sustainable alternatives and as a business owner I feel obligated to make those alternatives available." Tang's goal is to lessen humanity's detrimental effect on the environment by increasing the use of sustainable fibers. "Our rising standard of living should not come at the expense of the environment, " Tang states. Her husband, equally well-traveled and eco-minded, Steven Kennedy, is a Canadian Coast Guard Captain who has taken scientists from around the world to study global warming in the arctic. Through her previous involvement with mega-infrastructure developments, she has experienced first-hand the impact of human activity on the environment. Tang is an ex-investment banker and a MBA who has lived in and traveled to many parts of the world. Current owner and creative director, Bei Linda Tang, is working to expand on these foundational Dream Designs traditions. She specialized in making premium quality sleep, hemp, and décor items from cotton, meditation, spa, and linen textiles. An entrepreneur with a creative mind and a passion for natural lifestyles, McInnis found the perfect way to express her values when she established Dream Designs in 1981. Years ago, Dream Designs' late founder, Irma McInnis, was known as the "cotton queen" in a sewing class because she refused to sew with polyester. The company has recently added a sustainable fashion line to round out their collection of eco-friendly products. Her strategy is simple: offer well-designed, well-made products constructed with sustainable fibers and both the consumer and the planet will benefit.
