Welcome

Hi, and welcome to Eco Friendly Fashion. This site is designed to link boutiques and consumers to eco friendly fashion labels throughout the world, and to promote designers who are building their businesses with conscience.

We believe that that fashion industry is really dragging it's tail confronting issues of global warming.

Some Fashion industry facts:

- The fashion industry is the second largest user of water in the world, behind the agriculture industry. Fresh water is becoming a rare commodity, and in drought stricken areas such as Australia, the lack of clean water in the future could lead to detrimental effects on our communities and wildlife.

- Over 90 million items of clothing end up in land fill sites globally each year. Landfill is slowly polluting the earth, not to mention the deadly methane gases that are extruded from landfill sites which contribute to higher levels of carbon in our atmosphere.

- 150 grams of pesticides and other agricultural chemicals are used to produce the cotton for just one t-shirt. The pesticides that farmers use to protect textiles as they grow can harm wildlife, contaminate other products and get into the food we eat.
