Sustainable fashion a widespread movement to change fashion for the greater good. It is about more than just the products and materials that go into fashion and encompasses the whole system of fashion—the interdependent social, cultural, ecological elements as well.
With several fashion brands making headlines regarding unfair labor practices and manufacturing methods, it can sometimes feel impossible to find and trust brands that are environmentally and socially conscious. Further, many of our Prept clients have expressed that they would like to shop more eco friendly and sustainable fashion, thus we have complied a list of 19 of our favorite clothing brands below that meet the mark when it comes to sustainability! Stay tuned for a post on how a capsule wardrobe and other key tips can also support being more sustainable when it comes to your style.
