Eco-Fashion
Eco-fashion is about making clothes  that take into account the environment, the health of consumers and the working conditions of people in the fashion industry. With the eco-fashion industry still in its infancy, new brands are popping up each season, so keep your eyes pealed for new designers looking to bring earth-friendly practices down the runway.
