It’s time to go green
With Earth Day 2023 looming around the corner, there’s no better time than now to start supporting local brands that keep sustainability top-of-mind. Shopping isn’t inherently sustainable, however, if we learn to shop at stores that focus on amending their outward footprint, then we’re one step closer to protecting our planet. Whether it’s for Earth Day or the rest of the year, let’s enter the dire era of helping save the planet with tangible brands that are making a difference.
Shop these eco-conscious brands now.
Here are the best local brands to support this Earth Day 2023:
Terrae
Made from either deadstock or upcycled fabric, organic cotton, Econyl (100 per cent recycled fibre made from discarded fishing nets from the ocean) or recycled plastic bottles, Terrae is known for its eco-friendly athleisure wear. Comfortable and made for all sizes, their loungewear and activewear will be the perfect addition to your wardrobe. Whether you’re going for spin class or yoga, Terrae has a vast selection of pieces that’ll fit any activity.
Re{me}dy
Re{me}dy is a concept store that celebrates environmentally-friendly local brands that produce the best natural products. Their store also sells their own skincare and body care products that promote healthier and better skin along with a more eco-friendly lifestyle.
Wustler
Upgrade your sleepwear and loungewear with Wustler’s thoughtfully designed pieces. Made from silky rayon and viscose fabric blend, which are made of regenerated cellulose from wood pulp, their collections are full of ultra-soft and breathable pieces. The best part? 1 per cent of their sales goes towards their non-profit organisation partners such as Women’s Earth Alliance (WEA) annually.
Sunday Bedding
A better night’s sleep can be fully remedied by upgrading your sheets. Made from either bamboo rayon or French linen, Sunday Bedding provides sustainable decorating pieces that champion exceedingly soothing colour palettes and refined room schemes, but also soft and comfortable sleep options. Make the investment now and enjoy it for many years to come.
Ozero Swimwear
Since summer is just around the corner, there’s no harm in selecting sustainable swimwear for your beach-bound vacation. Made from Econyl, a regenerated nylon fibre made from rescued plastic waste like fishing nets and industrial plastic, their swimwear pieces are beautiful, trendy, and chic. You’ll feel comfortable and empowered in every piece!
