Sustainable & Luxe Styles

With increased pressure for transparency among the fashion industry, many major labels are stepping up to decrease their impact on the environment without compromising on style. You can stay at the top of your style game and feel good about your consumer footprint. See our top picks for sustainable fashion brands below.

One of the first major designers to put sustainability at the forefront of her brand, Stella McCartney has focused on testing more ethical processes for production and non-animal fabrics for her goods. One of her brand staples is the faux-leather Falabella bag which has achieved global recognition.

In 2020, Stine Goya made a public commitment to become more transparent around their social responsibility as a fashion brand. Each year, the brand explores new ways to incorporate sustainability into their design and production.

Danish brand Baum Und Pferdgarten has made public commitments, as well. For materials, the brand promises to use recycled polyester & nylons along with replacing all cotton with either organic or recycled options. They have also launched a "take-back" program to encourage customers to recycle their pieces.

We can't talk sustainable fashion without mentioning Gabriela Hearst. The womenswear designer only uses deadstock fabrics and produces collections in limited quantities. In 2020, she even debuted a carbon-neutral runway show!
