Tips to adapt ethical fashion

Loving fashion is like having a good taste to express your characteristic. But fashion shopping dependencies shouldn't capitalize on retail therapy to destroy more of our planet. The World’s largest fashion activists are focusing on basics needed to keep in mind while shopping. Coming together as a global community we must try to keep these fundamentals in customary practice. Being a member of a global fashion community that conserves and resuscitates the environment as well as value nature over growth and profit will be the progressive approach insupport of turning expectations into a reality. From supply chain transparency to living wages, textile waste to cultural appropriation, freedom of association to biodiversity, every little effort we make towards ethical fashion, we provoke a step forward into mindfulness and peaceful living. In the past decade, the noise around sustainable fashion has not only been louder but has made positive changes towards rising planet injustice. Our concern should be pressing the nerve of a colossal negative impact and the potential to be a force for change. Let's explore
the basic workout regime to expand the horizons of what fashion could- and should be.

 

Say hold-on to impulsive shopping


Serial shoppers usually confront themselves in a situation where the retail therapy bug chews shopping impulse. “Do I need this product?” should be the first query to help in governing retail addiction. Sleepover that impulse and shop for something you “need” rather than the premature enticement or urge to wish for. Fashion is a wonderland of many attractive things and colourful recommendations to stimulate your fascination. Instead of going on that whimsical binge, one should build a wardrobe full of things one “needs” instead of things one “wants”. Keeping your cart prepared for a week and filtering out a few more before final checkout will obtain pieces back home which carry additional significance.

Master the styling skills



Our styling skills have to get brushed up to its refinement if we are trying to keep a tidy and immaculate wardrobe. Our selection becomes more sustainable if we maximise the possibility of each piece by using it in multiple manners. Dish out the norm of single pair can be used one time, and explore the space where one pair could be mixed and matched multiple times. Aim to buy items that can be styled in at least five different ways. When you keep that idea in mind it will empower your styling skills at the same time it will help you to utilise those pieces
more than before.



Quality over quantity


Our parents and grandparents didn’t grow up in a culture where sustainable fashion, climate change or global warming kind of terms did their rounds. For them, sustainable living was the only way to live. They believed in preserving things to fetch vigorous values. They dealt with goods and nature more ethically than we do. A grandmother with 20 years old jacket or purse, telling the story about how she bought or how she adored that one piece is very much relatable. They never memorize how sustainable fashion came to play because they lived a sustainable life.


Using high-quality products contributes to reducing fashion waste as well as enhancing your taste because it’s not easy to find a truly good piece of garment. Today we live with so much junk that we need to spend time researching materials, forms and durability to recognise a well-made product.


Cut down on fast fashion


We all had a great experience during the pandemic where our wardrobes were left untouched and Indian weather put us all in jeopardy, our bags and shoes stood for the tough trial of showing the quality of durability. How many of us witnessed a friend complaining about leather getting chipped, the texture being crumpled and that Zara jacket which she loved so very dearly started falling apart? The biggest lesson came from our wardrobe where fast fashion was pulverizing a part and only good enough quality pieces showed the value of conscious shopping. It was the biggest reality check on fake and pirated products withering away. Hence, it’s all about the true values that we need to bring to our sustainable closet. Cherish what we owned so own the best and use them well. Spring is upon us, and that can only signify one thing it’s time for spring cleaning. Yet again not buying fast fashion and buying too much sustainable fashion also is equivalent to fashion waste and overconsumption. So before you start cleaning your wardrobe declutter mindfully to discourage waste and hold on to your favourite pieces whether you decide to pass on, repurpose and care, or work on multiple combinations. Before you choose to let go of an item, you might just check the quality and try to fall in love with it all over again. That’s what we call mindfulness of fashion and shopping.
