I don't know how to best describe what I'm looking for - minimalist with a bite, simple but not boxy, structured. Basically, I want to look like I walked out of the Matrix or Blade (though not as tactical). I like asymmetry, sharp edges, all black everything. I love a lbd as much as I love some vegan leggings.

I have a few things from Marcella, but I'm looking for other options in a similar price range.

Preferably made in Canada, but that doesn't seem possible.
My girlfriend set the requirements in passing, and I'm struggling. To ask her would give away the gift.

Has anyone actually received their order from quince? Mine has been "out for delivery" now for 3 days. They used UniUni for shipping, it's a Christmas present so trying to find out now if I got scammed or not so I can plan a new gift.

I mostly buy vintage these past 8 years, but I kind of miss the feeling of getting brand new to be honest!

Looking for clubwear, Paris Hilton style lounge wear and lingerie!

I like the style of I AM GIA, Miaou, 90s/00s baddie clothes! I usually thrift lots of Miss Sixty, Cache Cache and Juicy Couture.

I was looking for a gift for my best friend and I was thinking of sustainable silk/vegan silk and came across Maylyn & Co. They ship worldwide which is a huge plus. Pricing is on a higher side but they take Afterpay. Reviews are great too.

Thought I would share!

Hey everyone I'm someone who is also into ethical fashion. But I've also seen some points brought up against boycotting brands that partake in sweatshops. If somehow companies like Shein end up shutting down how will people working in these sweatshops make money then? How do we know they won't just get pushed into worse jobs on the long run? It's been something that's really bugging me lately.

I like free people style, but all of their stuff is expensive and not worth the price! Please help, open to anything.

My colleagues have recently published an investigative film looking at Zara's parent company, Inditex. The fast fashion giant is shipping their clothes increasingly by air as opposed to sea, which hurts the environment and puts more pressure on factories and workers in Bangladesh. Check out the full documentary here.

hi! i’m heading off to guatemala, honduras, nicaragua, el salvador, and costa rica in a little less than 3 weeks. i am looking for cute (and sustainable, obviously!) vacation clothes that will be good for the hot and humid weather i’ll be experiencing over there.

if anyone has any recommendations please let me know! i procrastinated for a bit too long.

info: female, from U.S

My daughters (14) do secret santa with their friends every year, and this year, they both asked to go thrifting for gifts! I’ve been telling them about second hand clothing and ethical fashion, and I’m so proud they’re trying to do it themselves.

My mom's brought me some stuff from shein for Christmas (I'm 14 years old and a minor btw) and I feel really bad abt it? I told her to not buy me stuff from there and tried to explain it to her but she said that it's fine and I feel really bad abt it because I don't want to not wear it because it's something she's brought me? Like I'm getting better at avoiding shein but sometimes she'll buy me something from there for Christmas or a birthday

I found this blazer dress online and absolutely like the looks of it. As usual it is fully plastic with 75% polyester and the rest viscose and elastan. Does anyone know a more sustainable brand for a dress like this?

I'm terrible at telling if websites are ethical or fast fashion 😭 There's a cardigan that I saw on Instagram and the person said they bought it from here. Link: https://cottagecoreclothes.com/?srsltid=AfmBOopcMnaDQHUvCEWhCRyqYt1qK8h8K1iXhcvFI-I_XrzL2kXXlo7E

Hey everyone, I’m looking for a visor-style winter hat made from natural fibres (wool, cotton, or cashmere preferred). Something warm, stylish, and practical for colder weather.

I used to have a Polo Bear winter hat that I loved, but I recently lost it. Unfortunately, I found out those are made of acrylic, and I’m hoping to find a replacement that’s made of natural materials for better comfort and warmth.

If you know of any brands or styles that make good natural fibre winter hats with a visor, I’d love to hear your recommendations! Thanks in advance!

Sorry for the not fully explained question. What I mean is: Do any ethical fashion brands/stores with fun patterns exist? I tried to find an cardigan with a cute pattern for example: ducks, lambs, etc. but only what I found are brands similar to shein. Please help! Edit: I also tried looking in second-hand shops but there aren't many where I live.

I almost exclusively buy secondhand. Usually when I see a fast fashion item I really like, I can just tell myself I can find something similar at the thrift store or a clothing swap or make it myself. However, I saw these shorts at Muji and I've been somewhat obsessed! I just know I'm not going to find anything like them and highly doubt I'd be able to make them myself.

I've been thinking of them so much, I've almost given in and bought them. But when I've researched Muji before, they seem to not be the most sustainable nor very ethical in terms of human rights and employee protections. I'd like to find something similar.

Bought this a few days ago on discount and realized when I got home that I can't believe spent over $200 on a cashmere dress that won't even keep me warm. I'm not up to date on any ethical brands bc I usually buy everything second hand but wanna treat myself to something new for the holidays.

Looking to keep the color dark, preferably a dark blue or red/ burgundy.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I currently really like the y2k-ish style (i dont want to call it y2k because i know someone will tell me that i'm using the wrong word, which i probably am), but i cant seem to find any in (online) thrift stores. Are there any ethical online stores that ship to european countries for an okay price? I added a picture for refrence, also does anyone know what this style is actually called?

What are your reviews on this company? Has anyone here bought or worked them with before?

So I mostly buy second hand clothing in thift stores or on Vinted (European version of Graled).

I was wondering how much difference it makes both ethically and sustainably, if I buy a piece that is, lets say 1 year old vs one that is 30 years old? (ignoring quality differences)

I got something gifted to me from a company and it didn’t state it was made with real fur. They claim it was ethically sourced from shedding, but I feel like in order to produce that much fur, it must be unethical. I’d assume they probably keep them in a small space or cages, which is not right.

Best case scenario, they buy fur from different farms where they just regularly groom animals and collect it. But how is it normally collected? I’ve been trying to research to find what type of treatment they endure, but I can’t find anything. Please help! Any credible sources are much appreciated.

i was gifted a pajama set from j. crew recently (not ethical/organic, i know, but they were a gift), and the label says "keep away from fire". the material says it is 100% cotton.

i've seen a lot of discord on the "keep away from fire" label - some folks say that it's there when clothes are made of synthetic fabrics that are easily flammable, but others are saying that it's the lack of synthetics, and this warning appears on cotton/natrual fibers that have not been treated with any flame retardant chemicals.

anyone know the truth? i've bought 100% organic cotton clothing before and have never seen this label, so curious about what others might know.
