A Sustainable Wardrobe

Become a mindful buyer

Before buying something, ask yourself these questions

“Do I need it?”

“Will it last long?”

“Does it fit my style and needs?”

“Will it bring joy in my life?”

If the answer is "YES!" to most of these questions, then go for it! If you’re not so sure, skip it. If you keep thinking about it, then reevaluate.

Bottom line, don't be a mindless buyer. Shop consciously.

Prioritize quality over quantity

Opt for high-quality clothes that meet your needs and will last for years. It's better to have fewer high-quality clothes that you adore than a lot of poor-quality clothes that have a short shelf life.

Thrifting, thrifting, thifting

Second-hand stores are full of hidden gems! Buying second-hand clothes minimizes the textile waste, thus making it a very sustainable practice.

Learn how to repair your clothes. From washing correctly your clothes to fixing holes and stains, mending is an essential skill to expand the life span of your clothes. If you're not handy, try to find a local seamstress or tailor who could fix your clothes.

Repair and Rewear

Before buying, read the label

Choose eco-friendly materials. Organic cotton, bamboo, hemp and recycled polyester are some of the materials that have a low environmental footprint.

Opt for slow-fashion ethical brands that are transparent about their production practices and sourcing of their materials. Whenever possible, support local and small businesses and impact positively your community.
