Vegan

A clothing brand is vegan if it produces items without using any animal products or by-products. This includes avoiding materials like leather, wool, silk, and fur, and instead using plant-based or synthetic alternatives.

Vegans can wear clothes made from plant-based materials like cotton, linen, and hemp, or synthetic fibers like polyester and nylon. Vegan alternatives to leather and silk are also available, such as faux leather and silk made from bamboo or other plant fibers.

Vegan fashion helps the environment by reducing the demand for animal-based products, which often involve resource-intensive farming and processing. This shift can lead to lower greenhouse gas emissions, less water usage, and a decrease in land needed for livestock, contributing to more sustainable and eco-friendly practices.

Vegan fashion benefits the environment by reducing reliance on animal agriculture, a significant contributor to greenhouse gases and deforestation. It often emphasises sustainable practices and materials, leading to lower carbon footprints and reduced environmental impact.
