I live and work in an atmosphère where consumerism is intensive, where Buy More is our daily motivation, and where there are so few reminders of the fact that clothing manufacturing is one of the most harmful sources to the environment. Fast fashion is the response to the constant need of buying and renewing. Sustainable fashion is the idea of taking more responsibility for sustainability, and looking at the ecological issues caused by the fashion industry and its impact on the environment.
We cannot change what happens in the whole world, but we can change how we live and what we personally do, by changing our own lifestyles to help our environment. Today, it is easier to think with an ecological mindset thanks to all the people who use their social platforms to discuss issues of sustainability in fashion, posting reminders about the plastic problem, about our oceans.
It takes a lot of courage to became a person of influence by communicating the notion of buying less and living more minimally, but if you also have the desire to live a more sustainable lifestyle, here is some great information to get you started.
