Your Questions About Green Living

Sharon asks…

How do you make eco- friendly clothes, like, where can you buy recycled fabric and stuff to make it out of?

I want to know how people make clothes that are considered ecofriendly. I know its kind of far in the future but I’m fourteen and when I’m older I want to maybe try to start an environmentally friendly clothing line, so I was curious as to how it works. I’ve already drawn designs in my notebook. 🙂
Anyone have any tips?

Name for an eco-friendly clothing line?

Hey, after much researching i came across a name i do find good for a brand name of a clothing line. It is [e&Co.] “e & company”. I was wondering if you thing it would sell. Would you guys ever shop or buy stuff from a brand labeled as such, being eco friendly [organic cotton] and it’s aimed at 16-25 yr olds girls and guys. Im startng with graphic tees, slim-fit.

Here is the link of how I would have it look [the brand name].

What do you guys think of the name? It can stand for environmental awareness, ecofriendly, interpret it however you want. Thanks 🙂

The Expert answers:

I dunno i don’t think the logo is catchy enough. I like the idea but i don’t think i’ll pay any attion to it make up a new name and a better logo. It looks more like a local campian to start liveing green.

Chris asks…

Where [online] can I purchase tall eco friendly/organic clothing?

I’ve purchased tops and blouses from sites like Soul-flower and Gypsy Rose, but I can’t buy any pants from those sites because they don’t have the option of a taller inseam. Are there any sites or companies out there that make such clothes in taller options?

The Expert answers:

It is very interesting when you are so concerned about eco friendly/organic clothing. Most clothing to be PC is made to “look” like animal skin and fur. Eco friendly/organic clothing is “real fur” and “real leather”. Most “look” like animal skin and fur is made out of synthetics, which is a by product of petroleum. Throw those PC clothes out and the degrading process is as long as a plastic bag and a styrofoam cup, etc. To answer your inseam question would best be served by Coldwater Creek, LL Bean, and Cabela. Among others which deal with higher end more expensive so called eco friendly/organic clothing (oxymoron) made from petroleum.

Eco-Friendly Clothing?

For school, I was thinking about putting on an “ecofriendly” fashion show, modeling clothes made of organic/reycled materials. ANYONE KNOW ANY SITES/STORES that would carry such products? Do you think stores would donate clothes? Should I suggest it as being a product endorsement??? thanks for the help, i’m lost!!

The Expert answers:

Girl, these sites carry awesome and gorgeous clothing made from all eco-friendly materials like: organic cotton, hemp, soy, tencel and bamboo.

Faeries dance, lotus organics, kasper organics, prana (uses wind power too), blue canoe…and always check coop america, but those 5 are my top picks. Good luck! ~N
