TURNING THE TIDE WITH SUSTAINABLE FASHION

In today’s fashion industry, there is an emerging 1)

trend and buzz words such as “sustainable”, 2)
fair
trade, “eco-friendly” and “ethical” fashion echo on social media. This is indeed a breath of fresh air in
what used to be an ecosystem of merciless predators, wolves in 3)
sheep’s clothing.
Today, people are increasingly gaining knowledge and becoming more conscious of how much 4)
carbon
footprint their fashion choices emit. And among those pioneering this pivotal movement are fashion
brands and celebrities. Celebrities are 5)
role models mainly for the younger generation and with this
great power naturally lies great responsibilities.
Fortunately, some of them take their stand on social media in a responsible way, patronising a more
ethical lifestyle, taking 6)
ideologies to a higher level, and promoting goods that improve their lives and
the lives of other humans and animals.

EMMA WATSON
UN Ambassador and award winning actress Emma Watson tops the list as one of Hollywood’s top 7)

advocates of sustainable fashion. In 2015, she 8)

embraced “The Green Carpet Challenge”. “I made a
choice last year that I would only wear sustainable fashion on the red carpet. The fashion industry is the
second-highest 9)
pollutant of freshwater on the planet. It has such a huge environmental impact and
such a big human impact”, Watson said. She launched “Feel Good Style”, a site dedicated to promoting
sustainable fashion and natural beauty, and she also started collaborating with British trade fair brand
“People Tree” to create collections out of upcycled 10)
fabrics, with fair trade practices in mind.
