What is Slow Fashion?

What is Slow Fashion?

What is Slow Fashion? 

Slow fashion is the widespread reaction to the fast fashion problem in the fashion and textile industry. 

 Did you know that the fashion and textile industry is one of the worlds biggest polluters? That 75% of materials ends up in the landfill? 

Thankfully there has been a new direction in fashion these days.

Coined by Kate Fletcher of the Centre for Sustainable Fashion, Slow Fashion is here to stay, as more and more people are choosing to support companies that reflect their need for sustainable and ethically made designs. It is a movement of change and sustainability, that inspires customer behaviour through brand awareness and principles. It teaches people to make a conscious effort in reducing their carbon footprint. 

Slow fashion is thoughtful and intentional, and brings a quality experience to the buyer. It combines a brand’s practices with a customer’s shopping habits and is setting the path for the future. Instead of chasing trends, that end up out of style and in the landfill, slow fashion brands design quality collections that last and never go out of style. Classy pieces made well and not over produced, while supporting those who make them.
