Sustainable UK Fashion is a news website dedicated to championing ethical fashion from across the United Kindom of Great Britain and Ireland. At SUF we are passionate about making fashion sustainable. We want to showcase the great British brands, products, and processes that are going the extra mile to make change happen and save our beautiful planet. The damaging ecological influence of fast fashion is indisputable and unacceptable. The apparel industry is the 2nd largest contaminating sector (after oil), sending a monstrous 1.2 billion tonnes of carbon yearly worldwide. The footprint of each and every garment is sometimes hard to comprehend. Some fabrics require ridiculously massive amounts of water to create and manufacture. Harmful chemicals are often used in the process. Every wash adds microfibres right into our seas, equating to around half a million tonnes each year. Factory workers are sometimes treated unfairly and unjustly. Components are shipped around the world leaving behind a huge carbon footprint. As if the above isn’t significantly damaging enough for the environment, we also need to think about the lack of durability of fast fashion garments. In the UK alone hundreds of tonnes of garments are thrown out every year, with 80% of it winding up in landfills where it can take up to 200 years to break down. Sustainable fashion is the process of thinking about and working to improve each step of the fashion industry from a product’s conception to the end of its lifecycle. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle whenever you can.
