The mantra that guides our shopping is: buy less, buy better. Here are nine more brands for our periodic selection of eco-conscious labels that respect workers' rights. The aspects we consider when making our selection are many: from the materials brands choose to use, to production processes, right through to the concept and inclusivity of their collections — all indispensable parameters when talking about sustainable fashion.

Bottega Bernard

It is a genderless project that combines tailoring, fabric research and environmental responsibility, with a Nordic-romantic aesthetic using Italian materials: natural, organic and recycled fibres, and above all end-cycle/deadstock fabrics sourced from the textile district of Prato.

Omnes

It uses low-impact materials, subjects its suppliers to audits through organisations such as Sedex, and promotes transparency throughout its entire production network. No trace of fur, angora, mohair, feathers, silk or exotic skins. It guarantees its UK employees a dignified living wage.

Asphalte

It produces using a made-to-order system: garments are put up for pre-order for a limited period and production only begins once orders have been collected. No waste thanks to the made-to-order system: the brand also involves its community in choosing details through co-creation surveys.

Camila Machado

She handcrafts one-of-a-kind bridal and ready-to-wear pieces following Brazilian textile tradition, using botanical printing and natural dyeing.

DONE!

It produces bags and backpacks made from 80% GRS-certified recycled materials, guaranteeing traceability and a reduced environmental impact, with each model available in limited edition. Since 2021 it has collaborated with Save The Planet on projects supporting the Rainha dos Apóstolos agricultural school in Manaus. It is currently working on the development of backpacks specifically designed for the Amazonian environment.

Armedangels

It uses organic and recycled fibres, equipping its products with Digital Product Passports and supplier information. Circular economy, repair services, the development of products designed for greater recyclability and the Digital Product Passport are the brand's key assets.

Wolford & Woolmark

Wolford's expertise in bodywear creation and Woolmark's know-how and certifications united in a second-skin collaboration. All styles are 100 per cent Merino wool and Seamless wool.

NAE

It has been handcrafting vegan shoes since 2008: all materials are 100% plant-based. Piñatex, organic cotton, OEKO-TEX microfibre and recycled PET: super cool vegan shoes handmade in Portugal.

Thinking MU

A Spanish brand with a zero-waste approach built into its design practices from the very start. It uses organic cotton, hemp and recycled fibres, produces ethically, and runs a recycling programme for used garments that consumers can return.
