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

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?

what are the best sustainable alternative fashion brands for women? trying to decide

I am trying to be more intentional about where I buy alternative clothing. I have got a shortlist of brands with some kind of sustainability focus, but they all approach it differently.
Jaded London has some strong designs and a clear visual identity though it is bigger operation and the quality reviews seem mixed. Forest Ink has been around since 2009 and doesn’t mass-produce, which appeals to me for different reasons. Disturbia has a well established alt identity and mentions ethical production, but i have not looked too deeply into the specifics.

has anyone tried these brands or found other alternatives worth checking out?

Colorful 100% GOTS cotton basics for petite women?

Fair Indigo has 100% cotton tops in so many beautiful colors but the reviews say that they run long-- a problem for me as a petite girl. Is there another website with similar options in petite-friendly styles or do I have to settle for 95% cotton?

Hi. I have question concerning ethical clothing. How do you dry your clothes in winter ? Because all ethical brands I see who make their clothes in Europe , they say " no tumble dry " . But " air drying ". Do you have problem to dry your clothes in winter ?

I'm not patient so I feel like I will just go back to normal brands 🫤

Does anyone have experience shopping at Rat Boi? I've seen their name mentioned on this sub a few times but I don't see any certifications on their website and none of their clothing is actually 100% cotton.
