I’m a huge proponent for supporting ethical fashion brands. I believe that companies transparent about their manufacturing process, workers’ wages, and sustainability practices are worth putting my dollar behind.
The ethical fashion or slow fashion movement directly challenges the phenomenon known as the fast fashion movement. In a nutshell, the fast fashion movement is marked by excessive waste, environmental degradation, and labor trafficking, to name a few of the worst consequences.

The higher prices of ethical fashion companies is a barrier to many people who want to support and join the movement. Because of the nature of the cause, these brands have to charge more for their products in order to ensure workers are paid fair and living wages, and that the environmental impact of the clothing is minimized.
Afraid you don’t have the money to support the ethical fashion movement? Fear not! Today I’m going to share with you some brands and pieces that are super affordable yet still support the slow fashion movement.

There are of course, many other ways to promote sustainable style without buying new clothes. You can support brands who do good by donating to any ethical fashion brand and promoting them and their products to your friends/family.
Another way to support the ethical fashion movement without buying new clothes is to buy your clothes secondhand. Thrifting clothes is one of my favorite things! Not only does it prevent wasteful creation of clothing that takes up resources to make, but it also is super fun and sparks my creativity.
