Why conscious fashion consumption matters
The fashion industry uses large amounts of water, energy and raw materials. Choosing clothes consciously, wearing them for longer and caring for them well can make a real difference to how you consume. It is worth taking a closer look at the materials: TENCEL™ Lyocell is made from wood from certified sources, organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides, and REPREVE® is a recycled polyester made, among other things, from used PET bottles.
8 March – International Women's Day: fashion for strong women
On 8 March, International Women's Day, it is time to put women centre stage. High-quality fashion made from certified materials underlines your individual style and can be worn for a long time. Particularly popular are spaghetti-strap dresses, long-sleeve bodysuits, TENCEL™ sweatshirts and women's linen trousers.
What to look for in clothing
- Certified materials: for women's organic cotton clothing or linen, labels such as GOTS or OCS tell you about the organic content.
- Transparent manufacturing: clear information about where items are made and the working conditions builds trust.
- Durable: well-made clothing such as a men's cotton sweat jacket or women's organic pyjamas lasts a long time with good care and is a worthwhile investment.
- Pleasant to wear: natural fibres such as organic cotton and TENCEL™ Lyocell feel soft and comfortable on the skin.
Our label ORGANICATION offers a wide range of garments made from these materials – depending on the item, certified to GOTS, OCS, GRS, RCS or RWS; the details are listed on each product page:
- Women's organic cotton T-shirts: soft, breathable and durable.
- Sweat dresses: stylish and comfortable for any occasion.
- Cotton yoga leggings: perfect for sport and leisure.
- Organic cotton joggers: for maximum comfort.
10 tips for a more conscious wardrobe
- Choose natural materials – TENCEL™ Lyocell, organic cotton and linen feel pleasant on the skin.
- Build a capsule wardrobe – fewer but higher-quality garments.
- Care for your clothes properly – washing cold and air-drying extend their lifespan.
- Discover second-hand fashion – pre-loved clothing gets a second life.
- Try upcycling – reuse old clothes creatively.
- Look for labels – certifications such as GOTS or GRS make claims verifiable.
- Shop consciously – better to buy quality once than cheap several times.
- Question fast fashion – cheap mass production relies on fast trends rather than durability.
- Wash less often – airing instead of washing saves water and energy and is gentler on the fibres.
