John Bartlett recently launched the Ambassador Collection–t-shirts benefiting Farm Sanctuary, one of the nation’s largest animal sanctuaries for abused and neglected farm animals.

A vegan who eliminated leather from his fashion collections a few years ago, Bartlett spoke to Businessweek about his success as a cruelty-free designer in the industry.

Businessweek: The clothes in your high fashion collection are cruelty free. What does that entail?

Bartlett: Cruelty free means that no animals are used in the product. Everything I work with is either plant based or synthetic.

For example, for the Fall collection, I created some really cool jackets from ultrasuede, which is a recycled micro fiber.
