Sustainability

Reasons why sustainable fashion matters though it is having some complication initially

With so many problems going on these days - climate change, plastic pollution, deforestation, loss of coral reefs & biodiversity, water scarcity, just to name a few - the fashion industry is not necessarily top of mind for most people as either a problem or solution. Unfortunately, we have got some bad news for you - the clothing industry is dirty and a significant contributor to environmental & human damage. Good news is that sustainable fashion addresses many of these issues in ways you may not expect.

Sustainable fashion brands create fashion in a way which is most considerate of humanity and the environment, reducing the environmental impact wherever possible. The ultimate goal is to have a system which works without leaving a negative footprint.

At Thenkko Fashion sourcing, we’re committed to work towards a sustainable future in fashion. By using as many organic & recycled materials, less water consumed fibers like Bamboo, LivaEco (viscose),Tencel as possible, we seek to reduce pressure on resources in order to restore the balance between people & planet with regards to fashion.

Since clothing plays a big role in our daily lives, it’s an extremely accessible avenue for us all to affect change. Even if we may not be able to control the on goings of a fashion company directly, we CAN educate ourselves, raise awareness on who made our clothes, what they’re made of and how their production impacts people and the planet.

In order words, choose to buy sustainably.
