Basic principles — conscious consumption and care for the environment.⠀
⠀
Some examples of slow fashion practice:⠀
⠀
- Make informed choices. Before you go shopping, ask yourself, how much do I really need this thing? Will it last a long time and not end up in a landfill in a year? Will I wear it often and will it match with other items in my wardrobe?⠀
- Don't follow trends, but to seek and to create your own unique style.⠀
- Think about how and in what conditions the clothes were made. Support local manufacturers or small brands with history.⠀
- Learn how to create or alter clothing, sew, knit, or find a good handyman.⠀
- Pay attention to vintage, second-hand stores, exchange clothes with friends. Take care of things, repair minor damage, extend their life so that they do not replenish landfills.⠀
- Change old things into new ones, take clothes to second-hand stores, or for recycling. ⠀
