I l\u00f6rdags, den 11 maj<\/strong>, var det World Fair Trade Day.<\/p>\n

Det borde det ju vara varje dag, s\u00e5klart, men om det beh\u00f6vs en specialdag f\u00f6r att olyckor som den i Dhaka <\/a>ska kunna f\u00f6rhindras s\u00e5 vore det ju riktigt dumt att inte f\u00f6rs\u00f6ka.<\/p>\n

F\u00f6rfattaren till boken Overdressed — The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion<\/em> <\/a>(som jag inte har l\u00e4st men som jag g\u00e4rna skulle vilja l\u00e4sa) delar med sig av tio tips f\u00f6r den som inte vill vara med och orsaka s\u00e5dana olyckor. Tipsen \u00e4r skrivna f\u00f6r en amerikansk l\u00e4sekrets, men de flesta av dem g\u00e5r utm\u00e4rkt att till\u00e4mpa h\u00e4r hos oss:<\/p>\n

Ten Simple Tips For a More Ethical & Sustainable Wardrobe<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

1. How you shop is just as important as where you shop –<\/strong> Wherever you buy your clothes, buy things you really love and are going to wear. Americans buy 68 garments and 7 pairs of shoes annually. One of the easiest changes you can make is to buy fewer items of clothing and get the most out of what you own!<\/em><\/p>\n

2. Avoid Disposable Purchases<\/strong> \u2013 In the U.S., 68 lbs of textiles per person go into the landfill every year. Help fashion\u2019s waste problem by buying clothes that are made to last.<\/em><\/p>\n

3. Shop Secondhand<\/strong> \u2013 Recycled, upcycled, refashioned, secondhand, vintage\u2013it all means giving clothes a second lease on life and reducing demand for new products. Find gently-used, on-trend fashion online at eBay, Etsy, Threadflip, and Dresm, and at your local charity shop, consignment shop, or thrift store like Buffalo Exchange, Salvation Army, or Goodwill.<\/em><\/p>\n

4. Share and Rent Clothes<\/strong> \u2013 Instead of buying new, organize a clothing swap, rent a dress online (RentTheRunway.com is one option), or shop a friend\u2019s closet. This is a great option for weddings, holiday parties, and other special occasions.<\/em><\/p>\n

5. Try D.I.Y.<\/strong> – Refashion thrift-store finds or what\u2019s already in your closet with scissors, a sewing-machine, or fabric dye. Refer to YouTube for endless online DIY tutorials.<\/em><\/p>\n

6. Shop your closet – <\/strong>Do you really need that new dress? A large percentage of the clothing own goes unworn. Get creative with what you already own by recombining pieces and accessorizing.<\/em><\/p>\n

7. Maintain Your Clothes & Shoes<\/strong> \u2013 Textile waste is a growing problem. Extend the life of your clothes by sewing buttons back on, cleaning stains, mending tears, and resoling shoes. For clothes going to a charity shop, this is just as important. Otherwise, they might get trashed.<\/em><\/p>\n

8. Donate Unwanted Clothes<\/strong> \u2013 Textiles are almost 100% recyclable, so never throw them away. More info here.<\/em><\/p>\n

10. Support Ethical and Sustainable Brands<\/strong> \u2013 When buying new, vote with your dollars and support clothing designers and brands that are eco-friendly and support good jobs for the folks making their products\u2013this can include American-made and fair labor brands.<\/em><\/p>\n
