10 Reasons To Care About Sustainability in Fashion

Here are 10 reasons to care about sustainability in fashion.

1. Sustainability is the opposite of fast fashion. Fast fashion is made quickly and cheaply. Moreover, fast fashion items are not made to last.
2. However, slow fashion takes into account the planet, environment, and garment workers.
3. Sustainable fashion is slow fashion.
4. Slow fashion is a form of luxury.
5. Likewise, sustainable fashion focuses on quality instead of quantity. It’s all about the quality of the item being made, not the amount of items that can be made quickly.
6. In addition, shopping for vintage pieces is an eco-friendly approach to sustainable fashion.
7. Also, sustainable fashion means less clothing, textiles, and accessories end up thrown away.
8. Furthermore, quality pieces are family heirlooms.
9. Vintage pieces will become a staple in your wardrobe.
10. Sustainable fashion lowers our environmental footprint.
