I’ve been seeing a trend emerging lately and that is in the both the fashion and beauty industry regarding green and Vegan products. Although Vegan and green products have been around for a while, it seems to be picking up momentum, as more people are becoming health conscious and earth conscious. As we watch the glaciers melt and fall into the Ocean in the Antarctic, it’s bringing to light the issue of global warming and forcing people to take a look at how to make and use products all around that are friendlier for the earth and our environment.
In December I wrote a post on Eco-Fashion, which is clothing that takes into account the environment, the health of consumers and the working conditions of people in the fashion industry. For a time there has been a handful of designers that have created their pieces to be eco-fashion friendly using hemp and other fibers to create earth friendly clothing, but as time progresses we’re seeing more designers venturing into this arena, most especially as vegetarians begin to grow in number and create a demand for more earth friendly products.
I know that personally, I’ve begun to choose more organic and mainly natural beauty products, but have yet to really try clothing made in the same way. If you have worn Vegan clothing, let me know what your thoughts are in the comments section.
