What Is Sustainable Fashion? And How to Build a Wardrobe That’s Kind to the Planet
First What Is Sustainability?
The word “sustainability” comes from the Latin word sustinere, which means to hold, support, or maintain. In today’s world, sustainability simply means living in a way that doesn’t harm the planet or the future.
Now, apply that to fashion.
Sustainable fashion means creating clothes that are kind to the Earth, from the materials we choose, to how they’re made, worn, and even reused. It’s not about giving up style; it’s about choosing better, slower, and smarter.
But Why Should You Care?
Your everyday outfit might look harmless, but if it's made with polyester, harsh dyes, and plastic-based fabric, it could be polluting water, releasing micro-plastics, and contributing to climate change. Fast fashion makes things worse: new drops every month, more waste, and clothes that fall apart in weeks.
So the real question is, do you want your wardrobe to add to the problem or help fix it?
