Eco-friendly fashion is a niche, and when you add plus sizes, it becomes a double niche, which makes the search extremely difficult. Sustainable fashion is also ethical fashion, which usually includes a garment design, production, and distribution that reduces harm to people and the environment. We’re here to take the challenge away and make shopping easier.
The term sustainable fashion has been used frequently to describe what and how clothes are made. What exactly is friendly sustainable fashion? It’s a movement and process of fostering change to fashion products and the fashion system towards greater ecological integrity and social justice. Sustainable fashion is also eco-fashion.
Eco-friendly fabrics are those that are safe for the environment, recycled, or biodegradable. The most popular ones are linen, cotton, wool, hemp, as well as anything that’s recycled and used in a new garment.
Mood Fabrics
Unsustainable fabrics are nylon and polyester, which are made from petrochemical and are non-biodegradable. Rayon is another artificial fiber.
If sustainable fashion is extremely important to you, you need to pay extra attention when shopping online. Take the time to read the garment description and when shopping in-store, read the fabric content tag.
How to be more eco-friendly with your clothes?
- Don’t throw away your lightly used clothes. Take them to a secondary store
- Resell on websites like Poshmark
- Donate your softly used clothes to shelters and charities
- Give to an animal shelter
- Check out local textile recycling locations
- Give them away to a friend or family member
