It’s like asking for an extra scoop of your favorite ice cream, but here’s the twist. I’m the one saying no to it! 😬

Yup, ever since my Gastric Bypass, I’ve had a tiny relationship with sweets. You’d need a microscope to spot the piece of cake I eat at birthdays. 😂

I’ll never learn not to deviate that far from the topic I am supposed to talk about, now will I? 😔

Well, I suppose since this is my blog, I can chat about ice cream or intergalactic space travel if I want, right? Just play along and say yes for fun. 🍦🌌😄

Still, let's get back on track, now shall we? Today, we’re going deeper into the secrets of some amazing fashion brands that love our planet and all the wonderful people who live here. 😊

MERA SILK's Vision on Sustainable Fashion
Mera Silk's sustainability approach revolves around small batch production and slow fashion, emphasising classic styles.
Our choice of silk, a biodegradable material, further reduces our environmental impact. We prioritise minimal packaging, avoiding plastic and opting for compostable materials, minimising waste.

By producing in small batches, we ensure quality control, reduce waste, and remain responsive to customer demand, preventing overproduction. Our classic designs promote slow fashion, encouraging customers to invest in timeless pieces, reducing overall consumption.

Silk's biodegradability means our garments decompose naturally, unlike synthetic materials. We use eco-friendly dyes and production processes, reducing water and chemical use. Transparency and ethical practices guide our supply chain.

Mera Silk is dedicated to a sustainable future, where style and environmental responsibility coexist harmoniously, offering customers long-lasting silk pieces while minimising fashion's impact on the planet.

Chaos Handbags's Vision on Sustainable Fashion
When it comes to sustainability, an increasing focus is being put on how we can reuse or recycle materials. Notably, the fashion industry is increasingly characterized by the waste it creates when producing garments and accessories, such as handbags.

Byproducts, such as wastewater from dyeing and material scraps, enter landfills and waterways, contributing to worldwide issues with pollution and waste.

Chaos by Elsie, a range of handbags for women, upcycles leather fragments used in the production cycle, which eliminates this waste from entering landfills.

By upcycling material to create new handbags, we save approximately 826 thousand gallons of water. And over nine tons of waste leather get reused in producing Chaos handbags.

Through our one-for-one giving program, Your Purchase Feeds, Chaos handbags have provided over 25 thousand meals to children in need in the United States and India. To date, the program has provided 45 million meals to kids around the world.

A.M. Custom Clothing's Vision to Sustainable Fashion
One way in which consumers can make more ethical fashion choices is by realizing the different third party sustainability accreditations that are available.

These accreditations are often largely misunderstood in an industry that is often plagued by greenwashing. Or, they are simply not common knowledge to everyday consumers.

We strive to overcome this hurdle at A.M. Custom Clothing by educating our customers on the different accreditations available in the clothing industry.

We provide quality, certified garments to our customers to give people assurance to fashion brands.
Such third party accreditations include Fairtrade, Fair Wear, OEKO-TEX and more. We believe that this honesty and commitment to sustainability is why some of the biggest brands in the world have trusted us as their sustainable garment supplier.

It's important to remember that modern day consumers are increasingly on the lookout for brands that are trusted for their commitment to sustainability and ethics.

As earlier discussed, any brand can green wash and claim their garments are ‘green’, but looking for third party fashion accreditations when shopping for sustainable clothing can help to cut through the noise and you can find brands you can really trust.

I want to give a super-duper shout-out to three amazing brands for being a part of this cool blog post! 😍

And if you're thinking, "I wish my brand was mentioned here," don't sweat it! 😅

You can leave a message on my blog post or contact me to share, in between 150 and 200 words, how your brand is a superhero for Mother Nature with eco-friendly sustainable fashion. 😃

You may not realise, but now is also the perfect time to dive into my other blog posts on this exceptional topic, if I say so myself. Give them a read! 😄
