I’ll never learn not to deviate that far from the topic I am supposed to talk about, now will I? 😔

Well, I suppose since this is my blog, I can chat about ice cream or intergalactic space travel if I want, right? Just play along and say yes for fun. 🍦🌌😄

Still, let's get back on track, now shall we? Today, we’re going deeper into the secrets of some amazing fashion brands that love our planet and all the wonderful people who live here. 😊

MERA SILK's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

Mera Silk's sustainability approach revolves around small batch production and slow fashion, emphasising classic styles. 

Our choice of silk, a biodegradable material, further reduces our environmental impact. We prioritise minimal packaging, avoiding plastic and opting for compostable materials, minimising waste.

By producing in small batches, we ensure quality control, reduce waste, and remain responsive to customer demand, preventing overproduction. Our classic designs promote slow fashion, encouraging customers to invest in timeless pieces, reducing overall consumption.

Silk's biodegradability means our garments decompose naturally, unlike synthetic materials. We use eco-friendly dyes and production processes, reducing water and chemical use. Transparency and ethical practices guide our supply chain.

Mera Silk is dedicated to a sustainable future, where style and environmental responsibility coexist harmoniously, offering customers long-lasting silk pieces while minimising fashion's impact on the planet.

Chaos Handbags's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

When it comes to sustainability, an increasing focus is being put on how we can reuse or recycle materials. Notably, the fashion industry is increasingly characterized by the waste it creates when producing garments and accessories, such as handbags.

Byproducts, such as wastewater from dyeing and material scraps, enter landfills and waterways, contributing to worldwide issues with pollution and waste.

Chaos by Elsie, a range of handbags for women, upcycles leather fragments used in the production cycle, which eliminates this waste from entering landfills. 

Picture provided by Chaos Handbags

By upcycling material to create new handbags, we save approximately 826 thousand gallons of water. And over nine tons of waste leather get reused in producing Chaos handbags. 

Through our one-for-one giving program, Your Purchase Feeds, Chaos handbags have provided over 25 thousand meals to children in need in the United States and India. To date, the program has provided 45 million meals to kids around the world.

A.M. Custom Clothing's Vision to Sustainable Fashion

One way in which consumers can make more ethical fashion choices is by realizing the different third party sustainability accreditations that are available. 

These accreditations are often largely misunderstood in an industry that is often plagued by greenwashing. Or, they are simply not common knowledge to everyday consumers. 

We strive to overcome this hurdle at A.M. Custom Clothing by educating our customers on the different accreditations available in the clothing industry. 

Picture provided by A M Custom Clothing

We provide quality, certified garments to our customers to give people assurance to fashion brands. 

Such third party accreditations include Fairtrade, Fair Wear, OEKO-TEX and more. We believe that this honesty and commitment to sustainability is why some of the biggest brands in the world have trusted us as their sustainable garment supplier.

It's important to remember that modern day consumers are increasingly on the lookout for brands that are trusted for their commitment to sustainability and ethics. 

As earlier discussed, any brand can green wash and claim their garments are ‘green’, but looking for third party fashion accreditations when shopping for sustainable clothing can help to cut through the noise and you can find brands you can really trust.

I want to give a super-duper shout-out to three amazing brands for being a part of this cool blog post! 😍

And if you're thinking, "I wish my brand was mentioned here," don't sweat it! 😅

You can leave a message on my blog post or contact me to share, in between 150 and 200 words, how your brand is a superhero for Mother Nature with eco-friendly sustainable fashion. 😃 

You may not realise, but now is also the perfect time to dive into my other blog posts on this exceptional topic, if I say so myself. Give them a read! 😄

Sustainable Fashion and Eco-Friendly Fashion Practices - Part 3

Hi There! Are you ready for a third part about sustainable fashion and eco-friendly practices?

Composition by Seadbeady

Can you believe it? We’re on the third leg of our exceptional adventure to make our planet a greener and happier place through fashion! 🦵😄

No, of course, we don’t have three legs. Can you imagine what fashion would look like? Designers would have to redesign everything to fit that third leg into a pair of pants. 😂

There would be advantages, though. Do you know, for instance, why a three-legged person would become a pro athlete? Because they always have a leg up on the competition! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Enough jokes, so what do these fashion brands do, and how do they become eco-friendly and sustainable? Well, get ready to discover the secrets, my eco-champion friends! 🌿😉

Fashion brands are like the creative minds behind the clothes we wear. Some of them have this incredible vision to make the world a cleaner, kinder place, and they put their visions into action! 🌍😊

That’s why I just had to write these blog posts about eco-friendly fashion because it’s like dressing up the Earth in fancy, green clothes! 💚😁

Hooray, I totally love it because when I was tiny, I had a blast dressing up and pretending! 👧🎉

Oh dear, I just realised, I don’t have a green dress, and I finally got the black dress I wanted so badly. Do I seriously have to give it up for a green one now? 😧

Nope, not at all my friends! Mother Earth is the one who’s doing a wardrobe makeover, not us! 😎

In this exciting part of our adventure, we’ll meet some incredible fashion brands. We’ll learn how they dream big and turn those dreams into reality by crafting clothing that’s kind to the environment and people. 🎇😄

Fashion brands can be like Earth’s best buddies, helping it stay clean, green, and happy. And on this adventure, we’ll discover how they do it, all while creating stylish and sustainable outfits. Are you excited? Because I sure am! 😍

Napes & Necklines's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

Sustainable fashion to me is not much different from the three R’s adage used to encourage waste reduction – reduce, reuse, and recycle.  

This same adage applies to my work in fashion, just slightly different. Reduce the amount of clothing consumed, reuse worn out or outdated clothing, and use recycled fabric whenever possible. 

Reduce 

I designed a new type of scarf/collar and clip because I had a closet full of expensive shirts that I didn’t like and hardly ever wore. 

Not a fan of traditional scarves or necklaces that hang around the neck, however, I needed a way to polish up my basic cotton shirts that are comfortable to wear but lack elegance. 

Now, I buy fewer shirts and have the option to dress up the shirts I already own with my scarf/collar design.  

Picture provided by Napes & Necklines

Reuse

In addition to selling my scarf/collar and clips, I will soon be also offering my pattern for free so that people can make their own A-line shaped scarves out of whatever fabric they already own (i.e., fabric scraps and old clothing).  

Recycle 

My current scarf/collar is made of cotton, but I plan to use recycled fabrics and organic cotton in the future.

Lost Discoveries's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

I started selling vintage fashion on Etsy some years ago. 

After handling many vintage garments, I realized that they teach a lesson. 

Many have been meticulously repaired with carefully sewn-in holes by past owners. They did all this to extend the garments' lifespan. 

People had different relationships with their possessions back then. Minor flaws were not a reason to throw clothes away.

Today, fast fashion encourages us to buy low-quality garments for cheap, and replace them as soon as they lose color and shape. If you buy fast fashion, then you know how soon that happens.  

Picture provided by Lost Discoveries

Quality issues are one aspect that raises demand for vintage. The other drive is escaping mass production. Clothes with age are becoming rare and unique. Wearing them allows you to create your own distinct style.

I hardly buy new stuff anymore for myself. Last year, I only picked up a pair of jeans from a regular store. It's actually quite liberating. 

My wardrobe is now full of designer pieces, high-quality linen, and silk outfits. I scored them for a cheap price. Much less than shopping in the cheapest fast fashion chains would cost me.

Picture provided by LeatherLuxe

LeatherLuxe's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

In today's world, where the fashion industry is synonymous with fast trends and disposable production, sustainable fashion stands out as a beacon of hope. 

It's not just a trend; it's a movement towards responsible and ethical practices that benefit both the planet and its people.

There are many ways to make more sustainable fashion choices. 

Here are a few tips:

• Choose natural materials, such as organic cotton, linen, and hemp.

• Avoid synthetic materials, such as polyester and nylon, which are made from fossil fuels.

• Look for recycled or upcycled materials..

• Buy secondhand items.

• Repair and mend your clothes instead of throwing them away.

• Support brands that are committed to sustainability.

Picture provided by LeatherLuxe

Sustainable fashion is not just about the materials used to make products. It is also about the way clothes are produced and disposed of. 

When you buy sustainable items, you are helping to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry.

At LeatherLuxe, we're committed to sustainable fashion in every stitch and detail. We prioritize using high-quality, eco-friendly materials like top-grain leather in our products. 

By choosing materials that age beautifully and endure, we encourage longevity and reduce the need for constant replacements.

I want to say a big thank you to three awesome brands for helping with this blog post. 😍

And if you're thinking, "Oh no, I wish my brand was in this blog," don't worry! 😉

You can still email me and tell me, in at least 150 words but no more than 200 words, how your brand helps Mother Nature with eco-friendly fashion. 😃

Now's a great time to read my other blog posts about this topic. Check them out! 😄

Sustainable Fashion and Eco-Friendly Fashion Practices - Part 2

Hi There! Are you ready for a second part about sustainable fashion and eco-friendly practices?

Composition by Seadbeady

Guess what, my fashion-forward friends and eco-warriors alike! There is no time like the present. 😄

It’s like Alice Morse Earle said; “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present.” 😁🎁

Ooh, I love a great present. Must be for my birthday tomorrow. Although I am dreading it somewhat. It’s got the number 6 and a 0 in it, and it’s not 06. You get just one attempt to guess my age. 😏

I’ll make it easy and give you the answer already. It’s 60, way past a half century, so I’m definitely not an eco-friendly spring chicken anymore. 😖🐔

There are some positives, though. At 60, you’ve unlocked the “Super Wisdom” power-up, allowing you to give the best life advice to anyone who asks (and sometimes even when they don’t ask!). Like, let's say, about sustainable fashion. 😉

You know why? Because I’ve been through so much, and I know how to handle all sorts of stuff like a boss! 😜

Whenever a challenge tries to mess with me, I whip out my special “I’ve been there, done that” attitude, and Bam! That’s my secret weapon to tackle anything that comes my way! 💪🤠

I might be older, but I’ve got this super funny side too, and my jokes can make anyone giggle! They say laughter makes you feel younger, so I’m like a super duper kid at heart! 🤣💕

So, watch out, world, because this 60-year-old is ready to rock and roll with all the wisdom and humor she’s got! Time to show everyone that being 60 is just a number, and I’m still the coolest cat in town! 😎🐾

Well, this cat is ready for a super cool sequel to our sustainable fashion extravaganza, and I hope you are, too? 😨

Get your eco-friendly accessories and green beanies ready because we’re diving back into the fabulous world of “Sustainable Fashion: The Sequel”! 😍

Manuel Dreesmann's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

Manuel Dreesman, a Barcelona-based fashion house that's pioneering a visionary approach to sustainable fashion design and production. 

The creative force behind Atelier Madre is Manuel Dreesmann, a designer who is rewritingthe narrative of luxury fashion. 

Dreesmann's background in both design and business has allowed him to bring a fresh perspective to the industry, particularly in the realm of sustainability and customer engagement.Atelier Madre's design philosophy eschews fleeting trends in favor of enduring appeal and functionality. 

Picture provided by Manuel Dreesmann

Each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, prioritizing timeless design principles that ensure each product not only stands the test of time but remains fashionable for a lifetime. 

Furthermore, thebrand's products are thoughtfully crafted through a harmonious fusion of cutting-edge minimalistic design principles and time-honored craftsmanship techniques, embodying Atelier Madre's commitment to delivering items that seamlessly blend contemporary aesthetics with the rich heritage of traditional artisanship.

One of the brand's most innovative practices is its just-in-time production model. Atelier Madre maintains no more than a single SKU in stock within their showroom at any given time. When a product is sold, a new one is crafted on the spot, eliminating overproduction and deadstock issues that plague many fashion companies.

Picture provided by Margo Paige

Margo Paige's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

Sustainable fashion is about quality over quantity. Choosing pieces that last longer, can be worn in different ways, and be multi-functional is one of the first steps towards a more mindful closet.

Instead of fast fashion pieces (where the clothing and style last only a short time), consider a few higher quality pieces with a classic style that will stay in fashion quickly. 

Picture provided by Margo Paige

Using fewer pieces often and for longer means that your wardrobe can go further because you are buying less and using more. 

Choosing items that match more options in your closet is a good first step - our clear handbags match just about any outfit. 

When they have reached the end of their life, they can be returned to Margo Paige through the Take Back Program, where the material is recycled and reused again. These bags are made from recycled PVC and faux leather, available in crossbody, purse, and backpack styles.

Picture provided by Cinder and Salt

Cinder and Salt's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

Sustainability & fashion don’t often mix, which is why at cinder + salt we strive to create apparel that will last as long as our customers want to wear it. Sustainable apparel needs to withstand hundreds of washes, decades of wear and be easy enough to repair or repurpose. 

We design with longevity in mind and that starts with sourcing; we search for the most eco fabrications, quality construction and longevity of the knits. We design our prints in a similar way, focusing on simple, timeless imagery that stays fun and relevant with age. 

Picture provided by Cinder and Salt

Our printing process is no exception, and we pride ourselves on using reclaimed inks, solar power and creating zero waste in our production.

We are always working to inspire our customers to rethink how they treat the waste in their lives. Many of our accessories and decor products are crafted from our production waste, like our plushie ornaments that are stuffed with fabric and thread scraps. 

We provide inspiration & resources for our community to engage in environmental activism with ease. As an apparel brand, for us, it’s not just about the apparel, it’s about being true to our company values in every aspect.

I would like to express my gratitude to the three brands for their contributions to this blog post. 😍

If you are thinking; "Ooh, I wish I would have been in this blog post", no worries. 😉

You can still contact me to share your view in a minimum of 150 words to a maximum of 200 words on how your brand does an effort to contribute to eco-friendly or sustainable fashion. 😃

No time like the present to check out my previous blog post on this subject:

Sustainable Fashion and Eco-Friendly Fashion Practices - Part 1

Hi There! Are you ready for something new?

Composition by Seadbeady

If I’d say, let’s talk about sustainable fashion and eco-friendly options in fashion. Would you keep reading? 😕

Perhaps you would first like to know how I became eco-friendly. Back in the day, when I was just a little troublemaker, my parents were on a mission to save Mother Nature and they made sure I knew it! 😨

Oh man, dropping a paper wrapper from, let’s say, a tasty lollipop was a big no-no in my house! 😬

My parents were like secret agents for the Earth, always sneaking around, waiting to catch me in an environmental slip-up. They’d give me a real talking-to if I dared to mess with Mother Nature. 😭

Ah, perhaps a little exaggerated, but let’s say I had to be sure to be eco-friendly. Still, looking back, I am grateful they taught me how important it was to keep our planet clean. I may have been a mischievous kid, but I sure learned my lesson about messing with Mother Nature! 😢

Ok, you got me. I admit I wasn’t mischievous at all, but I had two sisters who did their utmost best to be better at it than me. I was miss goody two shoes, always doing what was right. Hmm, I had better say almost always. 😏

Still, my upbringing and my love for fashion brought me to the idea of this new blog post about sustainable fashion. 😉

In this wacky world where most of us try to be more eco-friendly, brands have put on ‘their green thinking caps’ and they gave the fashion industry a good shake-up. It’s like they all woke up one day and said; “Hey, let’s make the world a cooler place to live in!” 😘

No, we aren’t all moving to the Northpole, not literally cool, you fool. 😜

Oops, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that. Too late, what has been said is said, or is it? 😂

The point is, they’re like fashion superheroes, but instead of capes, they’re rocking those green thinking caps, ready to save the planet one stylish outfit at a time. 😎

It’s like they’ve pressed the reset button on the fashion landscape and are creating a whole new trend: saving the Earth while looking fabulous. So get ready for their vision of sustainability. 😍

Andes Alpaca's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

At Andes Alpaca, we weave together sustainability, craftsmanship, and luxury fashion. Every piece we offer is created by the skilled hands of Andean artisans, preserving ancient weaving and knitting traditions. This people-first, machine-free approach supports local economies and preserves precious cultural heritage.

Our commitment to the environment is reflected in our choice of material: Alpaca wool, sourced from the free-roaming alpacas of the Andes. It's renewable, eco-friendly, and less demanding on water resources than other materials. Plus, our handcrafted pieces are designed to last, counteracting the disposable mindset of fast fashion.

Picture provided by Andes Alpaca

Our brand is more than just a purveyor of luxury goods. We are a story - a story of timeless fashion, skilled craftsmanship, and respect for both nature and culture. 

By blending the old with the new, we're leading the charge toward a more sustainable, more equitable fashion industry. And each Andes Alpaca piece is a beautiful testament to this journey.

Dressarte's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

Sustainable fashion, also known as eco-friendly or ethical fashion, refers to the practice of designing, producing, distributing, and consuming clothing, accessories, and footwear in a way that minimizes the negative impact on the environment. 

Dressarte is an online service that offers virtual tailoring and styling to create custom-made, sustainable clothing. Dressarte collaborates with fabric mills and utilizes certified luxurious surplus fabrics when producing clothes on demand. 

Picture provided by Dressarte

The company is a leading example of how the business can use the latest technologies to reduce waste that goes to landfills. Thanks to 3D design and virtual measurements, the tailoring process is smooth and returns are low. 

By supporting local artisans, Dressarte promotes social responsibility and enhances the well-being of workers and communities involved in the fashion industry. By helping clients design timeless clothes and capsule wardrobes, Dressarte encourages clients to shift away from the fast-paced, disposable fashion culture and encourages mindful consumption and reduction of unnecessary purchases.

Ruby Sampson's Vision on Sustainable Fashion

When I started Ruby Sampson, I was excited just to launch and create a physical manifestation of what was once an idea. However as my brand evolved, I became increasingly uneasy about the full breadth of the fashion industry’s carbon footprint and my participation. 

I decided to embrace digital printing because I could both align production with my eco-conscious values and own every aspect of my manufacturing process. 

Picture provided by Ruby Sampson

Sustainable fashion is a collective call to action, not just for shoppers but also designers, suppliers, and manufacturers. It requires us to stretch beyond cheap labor and quick gratification. Sustainable fashion asks us to align our values with our spending habits and become intentional consumers. 

However, fast fashion isn't on the decline anytime soon. In the face of inflation, consumers are always looking for stylish ways to save. However, for every fast fashion purchase, shoppers should balance the scale with a sustainable fashion purchase. 

I want to express my gratitude to the three brands for their contributions to this blog post. 😍

If you are thinking; "Darn, I wish I would have been in this blog post", no worries. 😉

You can still contact me to share your view in a minimum of 150 words to a maximum of 200 words on how your brand does an effort to contribute to eco-friendly or sustainable fashion. 😃
