There's never been a better time to support local makers
Maybe it’s the knot you get in your stomach when you think about the poor labour conditions. Perhaps it’s the water pollution, carbon emissions and overflowing landfills. Or maybe you’re just tired of having so much stuff yet feeling like you have nothing to wear. Whatever the cause—or, more likely, causes—many of us are ready to break up with fast fashion and spend our dollars elsewhere.
Enter ethical—or slow—fashion. A series of small but growing brands are transforming the fashion industry by prioritizing all the things that fast fashion doesn’t and placing a focus on quality pieces made by workers who are paid a living wage and treated with respect. Many makers also focus on using eco-friendly fabrics and manufacturing locally to reduce carbon emissions and environmental impact.
Investing in just a few higher-quality pieces you love—instead of buying lots of things because they’re on sale or because you have an immediate need —can transform the way you see and use your closet as well. It’s easier to shop your existing pieces and combine them into amazing outfits when you’ve got less of them and they’re purchased with intention.
