The fashion industry has a large influence on the global economy
and is more and more known for its social and environmental
impact. As a consumer hearing about recycled materials and
marketing that greenwashes this impact, we want to provide you
with the facts on how to shop sustainably and maintain your
clothes and accessories so they last longer. As stylists and
tailors, we have learned how to mend, look for quality, and keep
clothing for decades. We want to share our best wardrobe care
practices with you. Also, we will share our best practices for
shopping sustainably, as well as how to do it so it matches your
personal style. In this class, you will walk away with our large list
of sustainable and size-inclusive brands to shop for every
the occasion, tips, and tricks for scoring the best vintage and thrift
finds, a how-to take your measurements (helpful for many
reasons), a guide to caring for every piece of clothing or
accessory, and ten tips on how to spot quality-made goods.
