This is a sponsored article featuring brands that have been independently assessed by our rigorous ratings system. We’re proud to only collaborate with “Good” and “Great” rated brands. Learn more.
Every month, our team puts their heads together to find the best clothes, shoes, and accessories made by responsible brands you’ll love. Here are Good On You’s team picks for August 2024.
Why loving your clothes matters
Developing a connection with the things you own is important in more sustainable fashion, and August’s team picks are inspired by that sentiment. This month, a pair of earrings evoked in one team member memories of her mother, while another noted how Opera Campi’s sweater had become a much-loved essential in the Sydney winter. When things become old favourites or reminders of something special, we’re more likely to look after them, repair them, and extend their wearability for as long as possible. It’s a sharp contrast to the take-make-waste ethos of fast fashion.
In this roundup, there are handmade jeans from upcycled clothes, trousers inspired by the notion that light follows darkness, and many more thoughtful things—we hope they’ll inspire you to consider your own connections with clothing.
As the leading source for sustainable fashion ratings, Good On You’s team is dedicated to helping consumers make better shopping choices. In this monthly roundup, our internal experts from every corner of the company (and globe) share their personal selections from “Good” and “Great” rated brands. This curated compilation spotlights products that both align with our sustainability criteria and are just great pieces we’re excited to share with you.
