Look Good, Feel Good, and Do Good!

Your Roadmap to a More Sustainable Closet

Sustainability in fashion is about more than just using organic materials—it’s a holistic approach to considering the life cycle of your clothes. Here are some inspiring stories and resources to help you on your journey:

Why Changing Your Closet Saves the World!

Most people are unaware of the harsh realities of the fashion industry. Fast fashion not only encourages waste but also contributes to significant environmental harm. According to the BBC, the average person can save up to 10% of their clothing’s lifecycle emissions by making conscious shopping decisions.

10 Top Tips to Kickstart Your Sustainable Wardrobe

1. Educate Yourself

Start by researching brands that prioritize sustainability. Follow guides such as our stylish sustainable brands to discover eco-conscious options.

2. Go Beyond the ’30 Wears’ Test

Instead of focusing on a minimum number of wears, aim for clothing that you intend to keep forever. Investing in timeless pieces will reduce waste and maximize your wardrobe’s longevity.

3. Invest in Trans-Seasonal Clothes

Buying versatile, layerable pieces, like classic jeans, t-shirts, and jackets, ensures that your clothing is functional year-round. This approach not only saves you money but also reduces your environmental footprint.

4. Look After Your Clothes

Caring for your garments can dramatically extend their lifespan. Invest in simple tools like a steamer for delicate fabrics to keep them looking fresh.

5. Donate Unwanted Clothes

By donating clothes you no longer wear, you give them a second life. Always practice a one-in, one-out policy to minimize your wardrobe’s carbon footprint.

6. Adapt Your Shopping Attitude

Shift towards vintage or rented fashion for special occasions. Options like Vestiaire Collective and The RealReal help keep waste low while still enjoying newness.

7. Invest in Quality Over Quantity

Choose a few high-quality pieces each year over multiple fast-fashion items. This transition supports sustainable produce and reduces resource consumption.

8. Adjust Your Spending Habits

Instead of splurging on trendy fast fashion, invest in essential pieces you will wear daily. This mindset can shift your fashion perspective dramatically.

9. Learn to Repair Garments

From sewing a button to patching a hole, small repairs can keep your favorite items in circulation longer. Use services like Sojo to connect with local tailors for repairs.

10. Change Your Perspective

Sustainable fashion can be stylish. As Stella McCartney emphasizes, eco-friendly items can be just as desirable as their fast-fashion counterparts.
