The Conscious Closet: The Revolutionary Guide to Looking Good While Doing Good!
From journalist, fashionista, and clothing resale expert Elizabeth Cline, "the Michael Pollan of fashion," comes the definitive guide to building an ethical, sustainable wardrobe you'll love. With her landmark 2012 investigation Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion, Elizabeth Cline was the first to reveal fast fashion's hidden toll on garment workers, the environment, and even our own satisfaction with our clothes.
The Conscious Closet shows exactly what we can do about it.
In the wake of Overdressed, countless readers and consumers wondered how they should change their approach to fashion: How should they dress with their values? How, where, and how often should they shop? Cline herself struggled at first to merge her knowledge of the issues in the fashion industry and her ethical values with her growing appreciation for style. In recent years, that struggle has become progress: sustainable and ethical fashion has transformed into a worldwide movement.
Building off fresh research and her life-changing experiences getting off the fast-fashion treadmills, Cline now explores inspiring, everyday answers to those questions and so much more in The Conscious Closet, helping readers build a wardrobe they love with greater intention and awareness of our clothes, where they come from, what they’re made out of, and why they matter.
