Daily News | The Moorestown teacher who wore the same dress for 100 days has left the profession to run a fair trade boutique
Mooney still owns the infamous dress that was seen in news reports worldwide, since altered to add a new bottom and top to create two outfits. However, she no longer wears them. “I wore them enough,” she said with a laugh.
Gottardi, 57, who also taught at St. Joseph’s University, said she has long had an interest in fair trade. She took students to Latin America for social justice work and taught in Ecuador. At first, Mooney’s husband, a teacher for 18 years, was reluctant for her to leave the profession, but he eventually came around. The couple, with three children ages, 6, 8 and 16, follows an eco-sustainability lifestyle at home, too.
All of the merchandise in the store is Fair Trade Certified, including colorful clothing, jewelry made in Guatemala, coffee, tea, and hand-crafted quilling cards made in Vietnam. Some items are displayed on repurposed furniture, even a wooden ladder turned sideways to hold, a retailer that offers fair trade crafts and housewares from Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East.
