Sustainable Shopping: How to Make Ethical Fashion Choices

Research Brands

Before making a purchase, research the brand's practices. Look for information about their manufacturing processes, labor practices, and environmental impact.

Look for Certifications

Certifications like Fair Trade, GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), and B-Corp indicate a brand's commitment to ethical and sustainable practices.

Quality Over Quantity

Invest in fewer, higher-quality pieces that will last longer. This approach is more sustainable and often more cost-effective in the long run.

Second-Hand and Vintage

Consider shopping second-hand or vintage. This extends the life of clothing and reduces demand for new production. Many unique and stylish pieces can be found this way.

Supporting Ethical Brands

When you do buy new, support brands that are transparent about their practices and committed to positive change in the fashion industry.
