We live in a time when fashion changes faster than ever. New trends appear every week, and the showcases are constantly filled with clothes that you have to get. But what about the environment and quality of these clothes?

Here comes the slow fashion movement to remind us that the style should not be hasty or superficial. It can be beautiful, quality and sustainable.

What is Slow Fashion?

Slow fashion is the exact opposite of Fast Fashion. Instead of constantly buying cheap clothes that are spoiled quickly, Slow Fashion suggests investing in pieces that:

• They have high quality and withstand time.
• They are made with moral practices, without exploitation of workers.
• They respect the environment, using friendly materials and less waste.
Simply put, there is no need to have a wardrobe full – as long as you have pieces you love and wear again and again.

How to adopt slow fashion in your life

1. Bought less but better
Invest in clothing that has better quality and last. They may cost a little more, but in the end they will reward you, since you will not have to replace them so quickly.

2. Choose timeless pieces
A black capardine, a white shirt or a good jeans never leave fashion. Invest in basic pieces that you can combine with many looks.

3. Supported Sustainable Brands
He searched for companies that have transparent practices, use ecological materials and respect the rights of their employees. There are many, even with online stores.

4. Learn to take care of your clothes
Washing at low temperatures, ironing at the right temperature and proper storage extend the lives of your clothes.

5. Give second life to old clothes
Before you fly something, think if you can make it or donate it. Even a simple change of buttons can refresh the style of an old garment.

Why adopt slow fashion?

• Protect the environment: Fast fashion is responsible for huge amounts of waste and pollution.
• Respect human work: You choose brands that offer fair wages and good working conditions.
• You make a style that really expresses you: Instead of blindly following the trends, you create a closet that reflects your personal taste.

Slow fashion is not just a trend – it is a more conscious way of life. You don’t have to change everything from day to day. Take small steps and start seeing fashion with another eye. Your style will become more personal, more authentic and, most importantly, more friendly to the planet.
