10 Sustainable Clothing Brands from the UK

by Jasmine Snow

Cheap fashion often has a shockingly high cost, which is why purchasing secondhand clothing or up-cycling the clothes you currently own is so important. However, I don’t think it’s necessary to give up shopping altogether as long as we purchase intentionally and in moderation. Thankfully, there is an ever-growing amount of sustainable clothing brands popping up which can help us work towards this goal and so here are ten sustainable clothing brands from the UK:
