I love how you are using your platform to advocate for continuous and sustainable change. Also, you are stunning!

Sustainable fashion is expensive and is a privilege. However, people spend money on expensive things everyday. We purchase cars, Iphones, homes, and ect. Clothes should also be this kind of investment. We as a society are brainwashed into thinking that we need 20+ t-shirts or 10+ pairs of shoes. The reality is we don't need as much as we think. To be clear I am still a very consumerist person, who has yet to practice what I preach because it's difficult to reteach old ways of thinking and the dopamine rush of buying things is addictive. Right now I am happy to say that I am at least self-aware and will be extremely mindful of my future purchases by considering all my options and buying only when I feel necessary.

hey I've accidently found your channel and since then I learned a lot about ethical fashion, so thank you so much <33 We need more people like you on this platform!

People talk about size inclusion for heavyweight women, but do women accept men who are not 6' tall? Thank you for shedding light on true equality.

Just saw Arc'teryx president's call to action on companies' commitment to fair trade a few days ago. He said "The right to health, security, and fair wages is universal. At least, it should be. Supply chains need to reflect this." A young woman like you advocating & making videos about this is definitely ahead of many companies. You're inspiring. Keep it up. And let's hope more & more companies will genuinely take on the same mindset.

I really appreciate it when brands have real take back and remake programs...that is why I love the 'barefoot' brand Vivobarefoot. They have launched a website called ReVivo...where they take their old footwear and repair them and give them another life. Best brand for 'barefoot' footwear.

Systemic change must occur with individual change! Thank you for mentioning both!

[lindeyallen]

I just discovered your channel a few weeks ago and I just wanted to say how much I enjoy and appreciate your content! I am working toward being more eco-friendly, zero waste, and sustainable and your videos are so helpful.

For Kotn, I will say that their cream denim trouser (the one she shows) has a very small fit, and it shrinks even if you don’t put it in the dryer. I had to size up by 2 sizes and after the I washed it once it was too small for me to comfortably fasten. Just wanted to let you guys know!

[moniquehallsustainablestyl]

Very informative post and I love that you support marginalized groups and small businesses. Fantastic!

[sarahjames]

I found this video so informative and thorough. I so appreciate all the research and work you put into this! I have been on my sustainable and slow fashion journey for 2 years now and I am always looking of new brands. You not only pay attention to the aspect of sustainability, but also inclusivity which is so important. Also thank you for including different inspiring instagram accounts. I am always looking for new and diverse inspiration.

[aaliarizvi]

I love these videos so much! It's so refreshing to hear someone talk about size inclusivity in sustainable fashion! For denim what do you think about Levi's 'sustainable' line?

[emesegyori]

Hi! I just found you and really love your videos <3 I'm hungarian and think you should add more sustainable companies from other countries to your lists, since you started growing a worldwide subs-group! Wish you the best and keep growing✨

[juniper]

I love what I see from Free Label but have always missed out since everything sells out. Other good local brands not mentioned: Jimi collection and moss grey

[nicolesannes]

Love your videos!! You should check out Hara the Label for underwear! Such an amazing brand!

[lefxxwill]

thanks so much for this video! I've been going through my saved sustainable fashion brands today and wasn't feeling them at all :// I also don't have instagram so I mainly discover new brands through videos like this <3

[leafyleaf]

I appreciate you mentioning the earrings no irritating your ears. I’m always iffy on getting new earrings because I’m afraid they’ll irritate my ears.
