Exposing the secrets of sustainable fashion (Marketplace)

[@alphadraconis83]

100% agree with the statement at the end. Think of cost per wear rather than cost. I have at most 5 pairs of jeans/slacks/pants, 6 dress shirts. and a few hoodies. More than enough combination from those clothes that range from everyday wear to work wear. Having pretty neutral colours definitely helps too!

[@casualsuede]

My suggestion is to buy quality clothes (and that includes how good the stitching is) and reduce the amount you purchase. You don't need 100 pieces of clothing and 25 pairs of shoes.

[@Gilokee]

And also to buy a cheap sewing machine and learn how to mend your clothes. It's really easy!

[@skrittle555]

@@Gilokee I find mending small holes is done just fine by hand sewing even. A sewing machine is a great investment, but not necessary really unless you're actually making your own clothes.

[@Rich_and_Holy]

I need a 100 pieces, and it’s ok. As long as I invest in quality, keep them for life. Offer them to the next generation. The problem is not the amount of clothes we own, the problem is the clothes that end up in the landfill

[@exquisitemusiclover]

This will never end. Companies need to stop caring so much about the dollar, stop selling the need to buy the "next best thing", which will never happen.

When I grew up last mid century, everything was recycled. You got hand me downs. When clothing got too worn, it was made into rags. My mother made our clothing, and the remnants were made into quilt covers. Now, even rags are bought, when previously rags were raggety clothing.

[@johnhorner5711]

The focus on recycling is the biggest ruse of all of them. The mantra is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle", in that order. This video closes with the most important statement of all: We need to purchase radically less clothing than has become the new normal. Plastics related industries keep focusing attention on recycling as the solution, and it isn't. Fast fashion companies are not going to come out and say: "We need to sell half as many things and make them with the highest quality and environmental standards possible instead of churning out ever more stuff." "Consumers" #1 priority should be consuming less rather than trying to assuage guilt by accepting vague environmental statements.

[@ColleenJoudrey]

The video title would better read "When fast fashion lies about sustainability." There are sustainable options available but a person will not find them in fast fashion retailers and shopping malls.

[@tatertot1946]

I haunt second hand stores and gently used stores. Only thing I buy new (and wear until it dies) is underwear/socks. I have made a very personal style out of used clothing that is 'me' and not mass produced "fashion".

Haunt them, you say? You really must be there often in order to do that.

[@honeybdream]

Same!

[@blip-2024]

I do the same. Other than my underwear I buy exclusively from thrift and consignment stores. I select cotton fabrics whenever possible. Most of my clothing has 3 stages of wear, public, around the house/farm for chores and then as rags for cleaning. Sometimes an item I buy ends up not being worn. That item is washed, mended (if necessary) and donated back to a thrift store.

No expert here... but I think it would really help if we just stick to our favourite clothes instead of buyin new ones we never wear anyway. Like find your favourite clothes. Clothes u know u will wear for sure cuz u enjoy it. Clothes that have the quality to last. Make sure u got like 3 outfits (3 pants, 3 shirts etc). Then only try buy new clothes once every 3-4 years if possible. Saves money and u will be happier with yourself too. At least that is my experience... and not sure how sustainable it is. But i think it would really help using a mindset like they had back in the days. Most of the time we buy new stuffs we dont need out of frustration or in order to distract ourselves. So just buy what u need:) Thanks for uploading!

[@dool1002]

There are tons of organically derived materials like cotton, hemp, peels of coconut, avocados, bamboos, silk from insects, and even inorganic materials like basalt from volcanic rocks or carbon fiber. The issue is that many of those brands and companies manufacture goods overseas at low cost and "plastic" is the cheapest and most abundant material. Polyester is transformative and has advances societies in such a short period.

[@contempl8ive]

I used to “upcycle” felted wool sweaters into children’s clothing and some household items like tea cozies and blankets. It was creative and fun but very difficult to make a living because of how long it took to recreate new garments and then sell them. It did reduce the amount of textile waste on the environment significantly. Companies like Pre-loved were doing it too. I still do things like unravel and reuse byarn to knit into new things. If someone could find a way to scale up on these processes that would be amazing.

The question I have is, are these fabrics healthy for people to wear? We are discouraged from using food in plastic because it can disrupt hormones. Can recycled plastic disrupt hormones when we are wearing them next to our skin all day?

[@karolinakuc4783]

It can. And the most eco materials are hemp and flax. They are anti-bacterial, odour resistant, durable, quite elastic, they regulate moisture well and don't wrinkle as much as cotton. And flax seed is a food that heals. Industrial hemp is used to make medicine too. Flax and hemp are the future.

[@Sisi-vk6pn]

Cotton uses 6% of the world's pesticides and 16% of all insecticides-which is more than any other crop. These are harmful to the soil, release greenhouse gases, and pollute drinking water. Some of their chemicals can actually stay in soil and water for years, infiltrating our ecosystems and food chain. The simplest and best option is second hand :) and circular fashion.

[@craven5328]

If you can, investigate hemp and flax (used to make linen). Cotton requires a ton of water to cultivate and process (and unless you arw getting organic, often requires heavy pesticide / fertilizer use), whereas hemp and linen require much less water to grow.

[@karolinakuc4783]

Cotton is good but linien and hemp are even better. They have anti-bacterial and odour resistant properties. They are durable, capture moisture and dry quickly. And it is a more eco material

To me, recycling means to pass the garments on to donate or sell to thrift stores. If (and I do) buy second hand clothes, wear them for a few years, then donate to either one needy person who can pass them on to their families/friends and also sell or donate to thrift stores, to me that is the best way to recycling. Same with the plastic bags I get at the grocery stores.........I use each one once again as garbage bags. To me that works out well.

I’m 31 and I still wear some clothes I owned from high school, they have multiple small holes but they clothes me and provide protection from the elements. That is the primary purpose of clothes. Any garment you buy that isn’t 2nd hand is not environmentally friendly period. New clothes are not a necessity ( anyone can buy used clothes instead). New clothes should have a heavy carbon tax. On the other hand, electric cars are only fesable for the rich atm, and I find the carbon tax on gas to be appalling as for many lower working class people, gas is a necessity not a commodity.

B) polyester is a byproduct of natural gas, so I don’t see a problem in using “gas base material” for clothes C)what I do have problems is that companies can just say they are environmentally friendly by a low percentage of it actually being environmentally friendly.

In reality, most people don't even know what they really like to wear. They just buy wtvr is new, then realize they don't like it and never wear it again. Find what you like, keep that, buy more of that only when you need and buy some good quality stuff, which you'll not feel bad about, because you will wear it many times and it will pay off. Better for your pocket and will force fast fashion to review the huge volumes they operate in. It's simple, but not easy, and most of us don't want to put in the work. Those "recyclable waste" gimmicks are just not needed if we simply buy things that we love and that will last.

[@CyberMercy]

Here's the thing if it last forever why are we throwing it away. The petroleum products used to make bottles are a waste product from oil refining which is why & how poly is cheap in the first place. Yes I wear poly, I treat It well. And it lasts me years. The easiest way to avoid Waste is to not buy it in the first place. Swapping out to Natural textiles is not the answer either. To purchase products mindfully, not give in to marketting fomo, or social perception, and not make buyers's remorse someone else's problem, are lasting solutions every one can do right now, regardless of what their clothes are fabricated from.

[@sarahsnowe]

Time was, most people had a few items of everyday wear and one "good" dress or suit. French women still tend to have a small basic wardrobe which they accessorize. Regarding recycled polyester and other artificial fibres, they still shed particles that the washing machine pumps out, and they don't break down for anything up to 200 years. Try to get a filter. Of course, if people hadn't been indoctrinated into guzzling junk and even water from plastic bottles in the first place, there wouldn't be so many to turn into dodgy clothing. Oh, and you know that "lint" in your dryer? That's your clothes. If you hang stuff on a clothesline or a rack, you'll get a lot more use out of it.

I have even looked into more expensive retailers who want $120 for a basic dress and even that is made of rayon. Rayon is garbage. You are not supposed to get it wet, put it in the dryer, or even have it dry cleaned. It is an extremely cheap "natural" material that is used buy nearly every affordable and even more expensive brands but is a huge marker of non-sustainable clothing. How long can you keep a piece of clothing if you can't wash it? That goes for the clothing that hasn't been preshrunk as well. I bought a cotton shirt a few years ago, washed it by hand and hung it to dry and it still shrunk by 2 sizes. And it shouldn't cost $300 to get a basic cotton/linen dress.
