Back to Earth
11 years ago by
Earth Day comes every year.
(Ok, so we’re making a week of it.)
And, while we should be conscious all year-round (my vintage addiction I believe is a step in the right direction), it’s kind of a nice reminder each April that, in fashion, brands do exist who are working with the future of our planet in mind. They’re thinking all year long about it, may it be sustainable fabrics or eco-friendly processes.
Organic by John Patrick has been creating collections with fair labor practices and ecological awareness for over a decade now, and new-comer Amour Vert (literally “green love” in french) is following in those footsteps. Then there’s brands like Reformation who, on top of sustainable and dead-stock fabrics, go one step further with their use of recycled hangers and packaging in stores. Or Re/Done who is actually just re-tailoring existing jeans to a new more modern fit.
I think what most of these brands have nailed, and what makes them a success, is the notion that eco-friendly fashion doesn’t have to mean you’re a tree-hugging hippie sipping yerba mate, wearing a shirt that reads “SAVE the PLANET”. Which, by the way, I’ve definitely participated in all of the above (likely while giving a peace sign).
So, we wanted to share a few of our favorites with you, styled on the endearing Java (if she seems familiar, it’s because she’s Lolita’s sister!) . And prove that it’s cool to be kind to the earth every day, may it be with the shirt you put on, or the bottle you recycle. Eco never looked so chic!
Look 1 / Top, Dolores Haze; Tee, Reformation; Pants, Organic John Patrick; Bag, Stella McCartney.
Look 2 / Shirt, Organic John Patrick; Tee, Amour Vert; Jeans, Re/Done; Bag, All Hands.
Her first name is really Java?
That is so coool!
nice outfit by the way.
J’aime beaucoup! Merci pour cette belle découverte! <3

Ouf je suis contente de lire ça car ici à Miami nous sommes tellement en retard ne serait ce que sur le traitement des déchets! J’ai honte….
A mon petit niveau j’essaie de faire ce que je peux, je recycle mon papier, tri, lumière, eau… plus de bains!
J’ai mal pour notre si belle terre!!

I have a sort of bad luck on fashion blogs. When i like something in an outfit, its never listed !! Like the shoes in this case.
Nice! I don’t, though, see the Stella McCartney bag that’s credited in Look 1.
Lovely outfits! Please do tell us where the nice black flats are from… Repetto?
The ballet flats-who and where can I get them?
Il y a également la marque ekyog !
Très sensible à tout ceci depuis longtemps, écologique et équitable, je m’efforce de l’être le plus possible mais pour les vêtements je trouve que c’est assez difficile.
La marque Amour Vert que je ne connaissais pas est pas mal du tout!

this post smells like spring …
Girls who are loving those shoes, just in case the studio doesn’t answer, I think they may be Porselli (https://www.mychameleon.com.au/ballet-flat-black-p-3260.html?typemf=women), they also have a more patent version at My Chameleon, aaaand they also sell Organic by John Patrick goodies :)
Merci pour ce post! J’aime beaucoup Ekyog également, et le vintage passionnément!
Love it! <3

Hemp is the most sustainable of all natural fabrics. Thermoregulating and hypoallergenic properties mean you can wear it all year round and wash it a third as much, and like a linen it just gets softer with age. B GOODS LABEL in Australia is one small independent labels championing this amazing fabric. Eco never looked so chic indeed!

That is so coool!
nice outfit by the way.
You look really pretty in your display picture. Thanks for sharing beautiful content.

“ma passion pour le vintage est un premier pas”
c’est même plus qu’un premier pas c’est un état d’esprit !!!
S’habiller “écologique” et éthique, c’est un vrai défit! Ici en France en tout cas. Et j’avoue prendre de moins en moins de plaisir à acheter des vêtements car on ne peut pas fermer les yeux sur l’envers du macabre décor. Alors j’espère que dans un avenir proche, ces marques “green” ne se compterons plus sur les doigts de la main mais deviendront légions… Idem pour la journée de la Terre…
Très, très belles photos, le look 2 est tout simplement sublime. Et c’est génial de s’investir autant, je devrais en faire autant …

It is so super cool to see sustainable fashion brands here. :))) I have been researching a lot about ethical fashion lately (it has become somewhat a passion for me) and to see a post here filled with brands that I can add to my “safe to shop” list is amazing! Thank you a lot! Great to see some very beautiful pieces. Every week should be an earth week heheee!
Hope to see more!

Awareness of Ecology is MUST & SHOULD for every human being, to “SAVE the PLANET for NEXT GENERATIONS. The PLASTIC POLYESTER and are NON-PETROLEUM PRODUCTS DEGRADABLE, which are the real enemy of the Human Being, planet & Nature.
We have already Many alterations of Polyester and Plastic purpose under gold Developing Developing Countries can not stress Those options. Governments should Promote DEGRADABLE PLASTIC By Any Means.
Re-Use & Producing products by Utilizing wastage of Polyester Fabric is the only solution and everyone should go for it and buy Those products to support producer of these kinds of products.
Recycling of plastics is an ultimate solution but not a permanent solution coz plastic has got combinations death-proof properties.At least we should Reduce or stop utilization of plastic products.
White color looks so regal… The future really is going to be eco clothing.. Nice concept. Well ahead of time.. :))
