Abstract

How to put together a complete and up-to-date wardrobe from eco-friendly items to take care of nature. Environmental problems and overproduction dictate the trend towards conscious consumption, which is also often called sustainable, or slow, in all spheres of human life. Fashion is no exception: the era of weekly updates is becoming a thing of the past. Brands rely on environmentally friendly materials, limited drops and technology that allows things to last longer.
