New York (April 29) S&J announced its newer line of evening wear for women. Known as Pizzazz, it will feature blouses, skirts, and gowns created by world-renowned designer Alicia Estefan. Pizzazz products will be the first offerings from S&J made entirely with recycled polyester. Moreover, a portion of the proceeds from sales will be used to support research into eco-fashion and sustainable fabrics.

“With Pizzazz, we're aiming to become an industry leader in promoting sustainability,” said company spokesperson Trish Bhatia. “We also want to meet expectations when it comes to style and appearance.” Judging by the sample garments the company has released so far, it has achieved its goal. Consumers will be able to purchase Pizzazz clothing online and at select S&J stores in early summer.
