Ethical fashion vs sustainable fashion

I think these terms get used interchangeably a lot, but they focus on two different things. Ethical fashion is about the people making our clothes, including fair pay, safe working conditions and transparency about who made them. Sustainable fashion looks more at the environmental side, like fabric choices, dyes, waste and how long a garment lasts.

A brand can use natural materials and still treat workers unfairly, just as a brand can pay workers fairly while relying on materials with a high environmental impact. Ideally, we should look at both, along with how transparent a brand is about its suppliers and production methods. And honestly, wearing what we already own for longer is a good place to start too.

Where do you buy your clothes now?

Hi,

I’m a man, but it can apply to anyone, but where do you purchase your clothes now?

As I see, even Banana Republic (not factory) is using a lot of polyester and I thought Uniqlo was better in using 99% cotton, but it looks like their new products have more polyester.

I’m in Canada and I have no idea where to buy clothes made of mostly natural fabrics.

Thanks

Collecting old clothes

I recently picked up up-cycling as a hobby and I’m trying to experiment more with clothes , and just be more creative but sourcing materials is quite a hustle atm so I’m just here to ask if anyone would like to donate clothes they no longer use

Cashmere- so fragile!

I got gifted this lovely cashmere scarf from Muji, but after only a few months it’s developed a massive hole- about to rip in 2! The yarn itself is so thin that it can be tugged apart with barely any force. The fibres are so short, so it doesn’t have much structure. Is there anything I can do with this scarf? It’s merino and cashmere if I remember correctly, not really wearable but can it be recycled or upcycled at all?
