Sustainable Fashion: Making Ethical Choices

The Rise of Conscious Fashion

Sustainable fashion is no longer a niche - it's becoming mainstream. Indian consumers are increasingly aware of the environmental impact of their clothing choices.

1. Understanding Fabric Origins

Look for organic cotton, bamboo, and recycled polyester. These materials have significantly lower environmental footprints compared to conventional fabrics. Many Indian brands now offer complete transparency about their supply chains.

2. Supporting Local Artisans

India has a rich tradition of handloom textiles. By choosing handwoven fabrics like khadi, ikat, or banarasi silk, you're supporting traditional crafts while getting unique, high-quality pieces.

3. The 30-Wear Challenge

Before purchasing, ask yourself: "Will I wear this at least 30 times?" This simple question helps build a more intentional wardrobe and reduces impulse buys.
