Hi There! Are you ready for a second part about sustainable fashion and eco-friendly practices?
Composition by Seadbeady
Guess what, my fashion-forward friends and eco-warriors alike! There is no time like the present. 😄
It’s like Alice Morse Earle said; “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift, that’s why it’s called the present.” 😁🎁
Ooh, I love a great present. Must be for my birthday next month. Although I am dreading it somewhat. It’s got the number 6 and a 1 in it, and it’s not 16. You get just one attempt to guess my age. 😏
I’ll make it easy and give you the answer already. It’s 61, way past a half century, so I’m definitely not an eco-friendly spring chicken anymore. 😖🐔
There are some positives, though. At 60, you’ve unlocked the “Super Wisdom” power-up, allowing you to give the best life advice to anyone who asks (and sometimes even when they don’t ask!). Like, let's say, about sustainable fashion. 😉
You know why? Because I’ve been through so much, and I know how to handle all sorts of stuff like a boss! 😜
Whenever a challenge tries to mess with me, I whip out my special “I’ve been there, done that” attitude, and Bam! That’s my secret weapon to tackle anything that comes my way! 💪🤠
I might be older, but I’ve got this super funny side too, and my jokes can make anyone giggle! They say laughter makes you feel younger, so I’m like a super duper kid at heart! 🤣💕
So, watch out, world, because this 60-year-old is ready to rock and roll with all the wisdom and humor she’s got! Time to show everyone that being 60 is just a number, and I’m still the coolest cat in town! 😎🐾
Well, this cat is ready for a super cool sequel to our sustainable fashion extravaganza, and I hope you are, too? 😨
Get your eco-friendly accessories and green beanies ready because we’re diving back into the fabulous world of “Sustainable Fashion: The Sequel”! 😍

Manuel Dreesman, a Barcelona-based fashion house that's pioneering a visionary approach to sustainable fashion design and production.
The creative force behind Atelier Madre is Manuel Dreesmann, a designer who is rewritingthe narrative of luxury fashion.

Each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, prioritizing timeless design principles that ensure each product not only stands the test of time but remains fashionable for a lifetime.
Furthermore, thebrand's products are thoughtfully crafted through a harmonious fusion of cutting-edge minimalistic design principles and time-honored craftsmanship techniques, embodying Atelier Madre's commitment to delivering items that seamlessly blend contemporary aesthetics with the rich heritage of traditional artisanship.
One of the brand's most innovative practices is its just-in-time production model. Atelier Madre maintains no more than a single SKU in stock within their showroom at any given time. When a product is sold, a new one is crafted on the spot, eliminating overproduction and deadstock issues that plague many fashion companies.

Margo Paige's Vision on Sustainable Fashion
Sustainable fashion is about quality over quantity. Choosing pieces that last longer, can be worn in different ways, and be multi-functional is one of the first steps towards a more mindful closet.
Instead of fast fashion pieces (where the clothing and style last only a short time), consider a few higher quality pieces with a classic style that will stay in fashion quickly.

Using fewer pieces often and for longer means that your wardrobe can go further because you are buying less and using more.
Choosing items that match more options in your closet is a good first step - our clear handbags match just about any outfit.
When they have reached the end of their life, they can be returned to Margo Paige through the Take Back Program, where the material is recycled and reused again. These bags are made from recycled PVC and faux leather, available in crossbody, purse, and backpack styles.

Cinder and Salt's Vision on Sustainable Fashion
Sustainability & fashion don’t often mix, which is why at cinder + salt we strive to create apparel that will last as long as our customers want to wear it. Sustainable apparel needs to withstand hundreds of washes, decades of wear and be easy enough to repair or repurpose.
We design with longevity in mind and that starts with sourcing; we search for the most eco fabrications, quality construction and longevity of the knits. We design our prints in a similar way, focusing on simple, timeless imagery that stays fun and relevant with age.

Our printing process is no exception, and we pride ourselves on using reclaimed inks, solar power and creating zero waste in our production.
We are always working to inspire our customers to rethink how they treat the waste in their lives. Many of our accessories and decor products are crafted from our production waste, like our plushie ornaments that are stuffed with fabric and thread scraps.
We provide inspiration & resources for our community to engage in environmental activism with ease. As an apparel brand, for us, it’s not just about the apparel, it’s about being true to our company values in every aspect.
I would like to express my gratitude to the three brands for their contributions to this blog post. 😍
