Eco fashion has moved from a trend to a full scale movement; key voices within the industry are starting to call for a rethink on our extraordinary levels of clothes consumption. Lets be honest, we're all guilty of side stepping our eco-fashion conscience sometimes; it doesn't seem easy to be an eco goddess 100% of the time.
Tip Number 3 - Stop supporting sweatshop fashion
It's no secret that those made to pay the price for our fast fashion fixes are at the bottom of the clothing supply chain; a report by War on Want found workers in Bangladesh working 80 hours a week for 5p an hour. Make more ecological choices when it comes to fast fashion: "Fast isn't free - someone somewhere is paying. Fast fashion is disconnected from everything, from poverty wages to climate change. Slow fashion is not time based; it's about producing, designing and consuming better." Make a bid to stop sweatshop fashion at marieclaire.co.uk/stopsweatshopfashion.
