As attention turns more towards sustainability in all areas of our life, fashion is no exception. There are various aspects of sustainability that need to be considered in the fashion industry, including the ways that clothes are produced, the materials they’re made from, and the transportation of them. All of these factors add up to determine the true sustainability of the clothes that you’re wearing.
If you want to shop more sustainably, you can choose vegan and faux leather accessories as a good substitute. They use plant based materials and are cruelty free as an added bonus. In terms of clothing materials, look for sustainable ranges in high street shops, as well as more specialist online brands. There are lots of options to shop in more ethical ways, and now, you don’t have to look as far to find them. You can read about retailers’ policies on their websites and check their values in terms of sustainability.
