Eco-Friendly Clothing, Defeating Poverty
Welcome to the Eco-Friendly Clothing website. Here you can learn how ethical clothing lines can help defeat poverty in troubled parts of the world. Ethical fashion involves an awareness of all the different people who have played a part in the production of the clothes we wear, as well as of the environment. Ethical fashion can be defined as an item produced by considered and fairly paid workers. It is made by using traditional techniques like low-impact fibre reactive dyes and vegetable dyes, as well as from affordable and sustainable fabrics like organic cotton. Ethical fashion benefits everyone, from the farmer to the worker and finally the wearer.
It does not only refer to clothing. Fashion accessories are following this trend with things like eco-friendly purses, totes, and high heels. Such ethical products are made available without any compromise in quality or style. They change with the arrival of new trends, just like other fashions.
Using organic materials when designing is becoming second nature to designers everywhere as they focus on saving the earth while delivering quality products to consumers. Many companies are trying to produce fashion in a way that benefits people and doesn’t harm the environment. Poverty.
Sourcing clothing from renewable sources
The clothing industry is complicated and all the items we buy have a story behind them. Every step involved in producing the latest, trendiest clothes affects those who grow cotton, weave fabric, and produce the items.
The production process also affects the environment that we live in. In today’s climate, there is a clear trend toward opting for both environmentally friendly and organic clothing lines.
The ethical fashion industry is booming, and we are starting to be able to find anything we want in organic product sections. Speak to our Eco-Friendly Clothing experts to find out more.
How can you help?
This might sound obvious, but the whole point of Fair Trade, ecologically-sound fashion is that it’s a sustainable business. So, if you’re keen to help, probably the easiest way is to get down to our shop and treat yourself to some new clothes! And why not introduce your friends too.
For the braver amongst you, there are ways to get more involved with People Tree – and Fair Trade in general. You can become a People Tree Promoter and sell our clothes to family and friends. Or if you run a shop, purchase wholesale from us. Or maybe you’re looking for an internship or perhaps even a career with us.
Whatever it is, we’re always happy when people show a bit of commitment – so please do get in touch.
