It seems as though environmentally friendly clothing is becoming more popular every day. Many companies, including textile producers, are now making their products with the environment in mind. Some companies are making these changes in producing products by using organic material, decreasing the use of water in production, and using low-impact dyes. The demand for environmentally responsible textiles is also increasing; this has caused textile manufacturers to also make changes in their production process.
After reading the third chapter in our text book I learned a great deal about organic clothes and the production of them. I learned that there are many councils, associations, and organizations that have played a vital role in the research and development of clothes that are non-harmful to the environment. There are organizations that list companies that manufacture organic and environmentally friendly yarns. The National Council of Textile Organizations and The Sustainable Style Foundation are a few of these accommodating and informative groups.
I think that organic clothing is a great idea! The environment is being contaminated every day; I think that any way to prevent this is helpful. I am also very impressed with the way textile producers and apparel manufacturers have found alternate ways to produce their products while keeping the environment in mind.
Many people have the misconception that organic clothing is ugly, but actually a lot of stylish clothing lines are deciding to go green. Halogen, one of my favorite brands has started to make organic tee-shirts, I actually own a few. Nike, American Apparel, JC Penny, H&M, and Timberland have also incorporated environmentally conscious clothing into their products. All companies should consider becoming environmentally friendly; I would pay more money for a piece of clothing if I knew the production of it wasn’t harmful to the environment. Overall, organic clothing is a great idea! Saving the environment and looking chic doing it sounds good to me.
