What is slow fashion and how to join the movement?
In a world that has embraced consumerism, slow fashion is an alternative to the market, that carefully considers the processes and resources required to make clothing.

Demystifying illusions: What greenwashing hides
Concerns about the environmental impact of different industries have increased, both among companies and consumers.

Which textile materials are more sustainable?
All this news about the climate crisis makes us want to make sustainable choices when buying clothes and prioritise sustainable textile materials. But what exactly are sustainable materials? That’s the million-dollar question! The truth is that determining a raw material’s sustainability isn’t a black-and-white matter. There’re a variety of factors to consider, including those we’re going to talk about here.

However, this could be a mistake, because when we cut this accessory, we are increasing the probability of the garment being damaged early.
