Although the carbon emissions produced during the production of the garments we wear are often overlooked, we must not forget about them when working towards a more sustainable lifestyle.
Did you know what we choose to wear impacts the environment, the fragile ecosystem, and life on the planet?
The fashion industry now contributes more carbon to the ecosystem than aviation and shipping combined.

Here are some factors to consider when choosing a conscious clothing option.
What is the environmental impact of the clothes you wear? This is a question more, and more of us have been asking ourselves. Sustainable fashion has massively risen in popularity over the last decade, as we are choosing to buy sustainable clothing trends rather than cheap fast fashion garments.

Some believe that coming back to our ancestors' ways can help us live a more sustainable lifestyle. But do we need to go back to what they wore? Well, not exactly. We can use the technological advances and scientific research as a driving force behind tomorrow's sustainable fashion industry; based around our ancestors' eco-friendly clothing.
In this article, we share how innovations help make fashion ethical and eco-friendly, with new solutions and alternatives to look forward to.

Is it the same price as what you spend on takeout?
