To Support Slow Fashion, We Need To Understand How It Became So Fast

To Support Slow Fashion, We Need To Understand How It Became So Fast

May 21 2020

Written By: Lisa Bladh
The collapse of the Rana Plaza building in Bangladesh seven years ago made us all painfully aware of the social and environmental backsides of fast fashion. Since then, the idea of 'slow/ethical fashion' paired with transparency has exploded and entered the field of vision of even industry outsiders!

Slow fashion seems to be a brand new phenomenon, but in reality it goes way back. So, today we will guide you through a *very* brief history of fashion and get to the roots of where and when slow fashion started.

Our Top Tips to Wash Your Clothes More Sustainably (Eco-Friendly Laundry Guide)

July 23 2019
Up to 25% of your garment's carbon footprint comes from the way we care for them. If we learn to care for our clothes more efficiently, we can extend their lifespan by 9 months of active use and reduce carbon, water & waste footprints 4 to 10%. Many garments end up in the trash much earlier than necessary because of harsh over-washing. Here at OhSevenDays we want to promote a circular economy of clothing, and therefore encourage you to wash you garments in the most sustainable way possible! Here's our top tips for how to do so...
