Ethical Fashion Directory
In trying to find places from which to responsibly shop for clothing, I've spent a lot of time scouring the internet. I figured I might as well go ahead and put everything I've found into one, centralized directory. So, here is a list of the ethical fashion companies that I've found and that I admire. Each company is listed with a link to the information they have listed about their practices and philosophies as well as their approximate price range. I've tried to divide them up into reasonable categories. but many of these companies fit into multiple companies, so I've just placed them into the categories that I most associate them with and listed the other categories in the description. These categories have been derived from their websites--if something is missing, it doesn't necessarily mean they don't follow that practice, just that I didn't see it listed or described. This list is by no means exhaustive and is very much a work-in-progress, so stay tuned!
