Brief History of Eco Fashion Sustainable fashion came into the public

Brief History of Eco Fashion

Sustainable fashion came into the public foray in the

late 1980s and early 1990s as well-known companies such as Patagonia and ESPRIT brought "sustainability" into their businesses. The owners of those companies at that time were outdoorsmen and witnessed the environment being degraded by increased use. They commissioned research into the impacts of fibers used in their companies. For Patagonia, this resulted in a lifecycle assessment for four fibers, cotton, wool, nylon and polyester. For ESPRIT the focus was on cotton, which represented 90% of their business at that time.

Choosing organic fibers or sustainable fabrics--like those made from bamboo or hemp--can also trim the amount of carbon you give off and chemicals you bring into your life, and there's no doubt that's a good thing.

It’s better for animals

You may love the look of those leather

boots you saw on the runway, but the life of the animal that gave up its skin should have you thinking twice about buying them. Making sure your closet is stocked with cruelty-free clothes means you can get dressed without worrying about what went into what you're wearing.
