It is always good to know how is a garment made and who has worked on it under which conditions. The fashion industry has changed rapidly in recent years. And it has become faster and more short-lived than ever. Collections change more frequently than at any time before and global textile consumption has doubled since 2000. More and more garments that move from the shops into our cupboards and from our cupboards into the dumpster have triggered a colossal alienation: Fashion no longer mean anything to us. And has become a disposable good. It has nothing more to do with a good feeling and a personal expression. The dramatic consequence? Mountains of discarded clothing, because production is as cheap as possible. How an item is created, who has worked on it under what conditions - that is hardly traceable. One thing is certain: the clothing industry ranks second in the environmental polluter ranking, just behind the oil industry.
Sustainable luxury can be a way out.
And it would suit us much better, but sustainable fashion still has to struggle with a weak image: fair clothing and high fashion, that seems to be contradictory. the wearness wants to change the current perception of ethically impeccable and sustainable luxury fashion. We want to offer fashion-conscious customers a positive shopping alternative - aesthetic, uncomplicated, but with a clear conscience - without sacrificing style and quality.
