Find ethical, sustainable fashion made in Britain with care by hand-picked UK clothing makers using sustainable materials and built to last. Look great without contributing to fast fashion rushing its way to landfill. Choose quality, simply beautiful clothing and accessories made with care for our environment, that only get better over time.
Consider the shocking facts: the fashion and footwear industries account for a combined estimate of 8% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions, and fashion is the third highest-polluting industry in the world.
Equally shocking is that three-fifths of all clothing items will end up in an incinerator or landfill within a year after being produced. When you sit these two facts alongside the fact that we are facing environmental catastrophe, it is surely a no-brainer that we all need to move towards a more ethical, sustainable approach to fashion.
Whether you’re looking for sustainable clothing made using environmentally friendly materials and production methods, naturally tanned eco-conscious leather bags and accessories or handmade jewellery made with care for the wellbeing of our planet, you will find inspiration in our directory.
