Eco-anxiety; the state of heightened worry & nervousness triggered by the concern over climate change & factors associated with environmental issues. 🌎 #eco #anxiety #fashion #antifashion #lessismore #environment #sustainability #climatechange #plastic

The idea of leading a sustainable life in Hong Kong may almost seem like a joke - but you’d be surprised to know that change is happening in this city, esp. after @bof named it a ‘sustainable fashion hub in one of its recent articles. So if you were ever to visit this beautiful metropolis, you’ll find there’s a plethora of options to choose from when it comes to vegan dining or sustainable shopping! 🥑 If you’re a Hong Konger, i’m sure you already know the best there is, but as a resident of this city and someone who’s trying to journey towards zero-waste herself (and failing miserably), i’ve rounded up the top picks from shopping to dining - all in my latest article for @luxiders_magazine! Particularly enjoyed writing this one, link in bio 🤗 [📷: Siriwan Leowratsamee via @unsplash] #hongkong #hkig #sustainability #lifestyle #wheretoeat #wheretoshop #citylife #ethical #environment #vegan #lessismore #travel #ecofriendly #tourism

Listening to @lidewijedelkoort talk about her 'anti-fashion' manifesto on @bof voices (link in bio if you’re interested), and was so amazed at this one particular point that I felt I had to share. LISTEN UP ‼️ She says, "How can a product that needs to be sewn, grown, harvested, combed, spun, knitted, cut and stitched, finished, printed, labeled, packaged and transported cost a couple of euros? It's impossible. How is it possible that a garment is cheaper than a sandwich?" I’ll let that sink in for a min.... But do you think the price of the clothes that you buy from cheap retailers don't come at a cost? Because they do. At the cost of children, women, communities, their health & safety, their livelihoods, everything. It disgusts me to think that these brands pride themselves upon the fact that they're able to offer hundreds of new styles everyday at such low prices and people go crazy over them like bees to honey. All for the sake of looking good and feeling somewhat fashionable. People still don't realise the impact of their purchasing behaviors and choose to be ignorant about everything that goes on behind the scenes. We care so much about where our food comes from and what's in it, when will we start caring more about the clothes on our backs everyday and how they were made & under what conditions? When will these online / Instagram retailers selling low-quality garments realise that they aren't adding any value, they're just lining their pockets? There’s already enough shit out there, we don’t need more 😩😓 Ok, rant over. #fashion #styles #trends #outfits #fastfashion #zara #hnm #sustainability #textiles #whomademyclothes #cheap #shopless #mindfulness #lessismore #whatisfashion #antifashion #consumerism

[5/8] MESTIC: In my last few posts, i've highlighted some oddly amazing sustainable alternatives to our conventional fabrics such as spider silk, banana leather and so forth... if you think those were unusual, get ready to be mind-blown because guess what @mestic_official ’s textile is made of? COW DUNG! Smells like innovation at its finest to me. 🐄 Excessive cow dung from intensive dairy farming has led to an over-saturation of the soil in various European countries. This is why Dutch designer, Jalila Essaïdi, proposed to make the industry more circular by using the manure from cattle to produce bio-plastic and sustainable fibres - a process known as Mestic. Manure from these cows are made up of 35% cellulose, so with the global quantities of excess manure, there would be enough cellulose to meet the demand for fibres and replace cotton, which is currently a crop with the highest carbon footprint. 🌱 Supported by the @hmfoundation and launched by Inspidere, the fabric is energy efficient, renewable and totally odourless... holy cow!! 🐮 #hkig #fashion #sustainability #sustainablefashion #outfits #ethical #ecofriendly #vegan #textiles #innovate #slowfashion #green #cows
