Becoming a more sustainable person is a goal for a

Becoming a more sustainable person is a goal for a lot of us but at times all the information available to us can be overwhelming.

You don’t have to have everything perfect all at once...

How to start...

✅ Only buy clothes if you absolutely need them.

✅ Buy second hand clothes.

✅Take care of your clothes so that they last longer.

✅ Ask yourself, #WhoMadeMyClothes? Do research on brands before you buy from them.

✅ Repair your clothes.

✅ Limit the amount of times you wash your clothes to save water and energy.

✅ Air dry your clothes.

There is no wrong or right way to start your journey. It’s all about learning, even experts on sustainable fashion are still learning and adapting.

What advice would you give to someone who is just starting out on their sustainable journey?

#SustainableFashion #Fashion #GoGreen

Healing the fashion industry may feel like an impo

Healing the fashion industry may feel like an impossible task but we have to start somewhere, all it takes is just one single step (whether it's an idea, an affirmation or a question) to get the gears going.

We love these tips from @elleusa!

Do you have anything to add?

We love this moment with our Founder @suzyamiscameron giving actress Danielle Macdonald her Oscars ticket for the 2019 Oscars.

The talented @daniellemacdonald stunned the crowds wearing a custom red tulle draped sleeve overlay gown made by CFDA fashion designer, @csiriano. The gown was made up of a brilliant shade of red cotton crepe vegetable dyed fabric. Siriano used recycled tulle for the sleeves and minimal waste for the skirt and top.

Dematerialisation is the reduction of products sold to consumers; a countermovement of materialism.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Dematerialisation is defined by @UNEP as “the reduction of total material and energy throughput of any product and service, and thus the limitation of its environmental impact. This includes reduction of raw materials at the production stage, of energy and material inputs at the use stage, and of waste at the disposal stage.”.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Repairing clothes is not only a great way to extend the life of clothing but it is also easy on your wallet and an excellent avenue to conserve the environment. Every second you are reading this post, one garbage truck of textiles is being dumped or incinerated in a landfill somewhere in the world. Imagine the volume of clothes being binned that are as good as new or just need basic repairs. Community, please comment your crafty repairs below so that we can continue to inspire each other.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Our workshop series is a new initiative that we launched back in October 2020 and we are very much looking forward to continuing the series. The workshop series will be a journey into sustainable fashion through learning and understanding and is aimed at educating on the topic of sustainability. They are curated for beginners, however, all are welcome regardless of your knowledge and experience with sustainable fashion.

The workshops will be hosted by our CEO @IAm_Samata with a range of guest appearances, including our founder @SuzyAmisCameron, covering key topics such as Responsible Consumption, Fashion’s Impact on Nature, and Intersectional Environmentalism, amongst many others.

Join the live sessions and engage as we go on a journey of understanding. Each session will run for 90 minutes with an interactive Q & A at the end and from the feedback we have already received, we know that these interactions have been invaluable for our attendees.

Link in bio for details on our next workshop on sustainable design! Thursday 13th May 2021 at 5pm BST, 9am PT and 12pm ET.

Is glitter losing its sparkle? Most glitter produ

Is glitter losing its sparkle?

Most glitter products are made from plastic which is a problem for us and the planet as the micro plastics are leaking into the environment.

‘Glitter is made from plastic sheets and used in a wide array of products, including cosmetics. When washed down the drain, glitter becomes a subset of marine plastic litter known as microplastic. Microplastics, which measure less than five millimeters in length, are found throughout the world’s oceans, from the surface to the deep sea floor. They are consumed by plankton, fish, shellfish, seabirds, and other marine life. Plastic bits collect in birds’ stomachs, where they can cause them to die of starvation. Scientists have become increasingly concerned about its effects on fish and other marine life.’ - @natgeo

Should we ban glitter? Do you use any alternatives?

It’s been a week already since this epic moment

It’s been a week already since this epic moment on the red carpet where @themarleematlin represented @suzyamiscameron’s Red Carpet Green Dress™️(RCGD) initiative in collaboration with TENCEL™️.

Red Carpet Green Dress™️ (RCGD) is a women-led global change-making organisation working from ‘moment to movement’, bringing sustainability to the forefront of conversation and action within the fashion and apparel industry so we are always so proud to have incredible talents like Marlee Matlin help us put a sustainable stamp on the red carpet.

Marlee shone on the red carpet at the 93rd Academy Awards®️ wearing a sustainable @viviennewestwood custom-made gown in a newly launched Red Carpet Green Dress™️ black vegan textile made with TENCEL Luxe filaments, incorporating an archival Westwood fabric.

What a year!

We would also like to spotlight the incredible film @feelingthrough (swipe for official trailer) that was produced by Marlee Matlin.

FEELING THROUGH - A late night encounter on a New York City street leads to a profound connection between a teen-in-need and a DeafBlind man. FEELING THROUGH is the first film to star a DeafBlind actor and the winner of 17 awards at film festivals including Slamdance, San Diego International, Portland, and many more.

Go and check out @feelingthrough!

We are always really excited to see Gen Z environm

We are always really excited to see Gen Z environmentalists doing their thing for our planet and we love to spotlight them.

Today we want to spotlight Mitzi Jonelle Tan who is a climate justice Activist from the Philippines.

'@mitzijonelle is a full-time climate justice activist. She is the convenor and international spokesperson of Youth Advocates for Climate Action Philippines (YACAP), the Fridays For Future (FFF) of the Philippines. She is also active in FFF International, advocating for climate justice and making sure that voices of Most Affected Peoples and Areas (MAPA @fridaysforfuturemapa)’s strikers are heard, amplified, and given space. She first became an activist in 2017 after integrating with indigenous leaders of her country which pushed her to realize that collective action and system change is what we need for a just and green society.' - yacap.org

"The Philippines is the 2nd most vulnerable country to the climate crisis, yet our contribution to the global greenhouse gas emissions are so minimal. With this planetary emergency, common sense would dictate that climate would be at the top of the agenda and those already protecting the environment would be listened to. Instead, we have no concrete climate plans, our environmental activists and defenders are being killed, harassed, and displaced. The willful ignorance of world leaders is pushing us all to become climate activists, pushing us all to strike for justice. I am an activist because I don’t want to be afraid anymore. I don’t want to ever again be afraid of drowning in my own bedroom because of the floods. I don’t want to have anymore candle-lit dinners because our power is out and the typhoon is raging outside. I am an activist because of my deep love for the people and the environment, a love that binds me to the movement calling for climate and social justice." - @mitzijonelle.

💚THE A-Z OF SUSTAINABLE FASHION💚

Circular fashion refers to the entire lifecycle of a product and centers on a circle of create, use, recycle, rather than create, use, dispose. It looks at products beyond their original function and timespan and focuses on how their materials can be consistently utilized and repurposed. Circular fashion takes in to consideration everything including the design, sourcing, transportation, storage, marketing, sale and disposal of the product.

It’s the last day of Earth Month so we would love to find out what you have been doing this month to celebrate it!

Did you complete any of our pledges? Or perhaps you set some personal pledges for Earth Month? We would love to hear about them.

We also want to add that the work shouldn’t stop outside of Earth Month. It’s a great time to elevate conversations further, so let’s keep up the momentum!

A survey of 2,000 women found most clothes are worn just seven times. Do you feel a pressure to not wear the same outfit more than once? Why is that?

Tonnes of clothes are discarded each year and most of them are not even considered 'worn out'.

Don’t buy clothes if you plan on wearing them once.

Think before you buy.

Think before you throw away.

Air-drying has lots of benefits; saving energy, saving money, preventing static cling, adding a fresh smell and extending the lifespan of your clothes by reducing the wear and tear in the dryer.

Time for another pledge - I pledge to reduce the number of clothing washes that I do each week, to help save water.

We have been sharing pledges throughout the month for you to get involved in and we would love to know your ideas on pledges we could share with our community. We have pledges on food, fashion, water, air pollution and waste, let's share!

Will you pledge with us?
