A recurring thread for talking about things related to sustainable fashion. Be nice.
hello everyone!
I’m a Portuguese girl with a very typical Portuguese/spanish style, that I have recently found out is boho chic. To me Zara is the perfect store in terms of style. In recent years as I have become more aware I have switched to strictly buying on vinted, but I find myself still only buying from Zara or similar brands on there and sometimes things that are still in store, which is shocking. my point is that I feel like I haven’t really made any changes, instead of buying it on the store im just buying it from someone who just bought it at the store. The problem is I can’t find sustainable brands that fit my style. Buying second hand in person is not possible for me in the city I live in. Basically I’m asking for brand recommendations or just recommendations in general. Thank you.
Help! I need new socks and boxers.
All the pairs I bought from Target over 2 y ago have almost all worn out.
I buy secondhand as much as possible, but I draw the line at underwear, socks, and shoes. I belive shrinking my footprint, no matter how futile, is important, at least for my heart. I feel the same way voting with my money. I might not be able to put Amazon out of business, but I can try.
So I need brands that suck less than others, i.e. not a major polluter, transparent supply chain, not a ton of human rights violations, not being boycott.
Boycotts I am participating in: Amazon, Walmart, Temu, Nike, Target, everything on the BDS Movement* (I need to review the list) and few fast food restaurants and
They also have to be affordable, because I'm a working class schmo and thrift was a value growing up. As such, sometimes more affordable is more money but longer lasting. My favorite brands for thrifting are work wear and outdoor brands.
What fabrics are more sustainable than others? Bamboo vrs cotton vrs synthetic?
Amd what the F are "cooling fabrics"?
