It can be difficult to know exactly where to look for truly eco-friendly and ethically made clothing. Resources like Good On You, a comprehensive sustainable and ethical fashion ratings system, can help you make informed purchases. There is an increase in the number of brands that are producing high-quality, eco-friendly collections – and which don’t sacrifice style – so that you can refresh your wardrobe with a clear conscience.
“Sustainable fashion” refers to the concept of creating fashion items in a way that reduces the environmental impact and promotes social responsibility from materials to production and distribution. Materials used in production is one of the largest focuses – natural and organic materials that are biodegradable and do not contribute to the buildup of waste in landfills are key.
There are several ways to support sustainable fashion, including opting for organic materials, choosing clothes that are made to last, repairing and maintaining clothes, and choosing brands that prioritize eco-friendly practices.
Here are some brands available in-store at Galleria Dallas that are carving out a greener space in the fashion industry.
