The Ecofabulous Guide to the Best of Fall Fashion
There’s a veritable pumpkin patch-full of gorgeous green apparel out there for fall, and we’re here to help you sort through the choices. From the softest layering knits to “Covet”-worthy sweater dresses, check out the pieces you’ll be dying to don as the leaves—and trends—turn!
| Oozing contemporary cool, Covet‘s fall collection of figure flattering sweater dresses, wide leg trousers, and slouchy cardigans are the height of laid-back chic. We’re craving their Button Front Sweater Poncho for autumnal lounge sessions. | |
| Aesthetics and ethics: that’s what it’s all about for the husband and wife team behind Stewart + Brown. The results of this perfect marriage are perfectly gorgeous to boot; we’re loving the Boyfriend Wrap Sweater and cascading Gres Gown, both of which up the romance factor of any wardrobe. | |
| We’ve already raved about Mika Machida’s water-based animal silkscreen tees, but this fall it’s the flirty Spiral Shell Dress that we fancy. You’ll dazzle during cocktail hour in the organic cotton frock, and 5% of profits from its sale will go toward a non-profit benefiting endangered species and their habitats. | |
| It’s easy to see why savvy eco-stylistas across the pond are going gaga for Joanna Cave‘s pendant necklaces and cutout earrings. Shimmering in recycled metals and ethically sourced pearls, they’re elegant, unabashedly bold, and make a fashion statement that’s en vogue and majorly green. |
| Gents wanting to show off their fashion smarts and eco-ethics should turn to the organic cotton button ups and colorful, comfy chinos by Knowledge Apparel. Bringing the best of Scandinavian style to the States, the label is oh-so urban cool. | |
| You’ve never seen workwear like this: in collaboration with Puma, French designer Sakina M’Sa took discarded French workmen’s overalls and cobbled them together into 1,000 limited edition Grip Bags. Nab it while it’s hot (not to mention haute!) and gym time will look so much more dashing. | |
| Looking for an planet-friendly alternative to classic Chucks? Look no further than Rapanui‘s Fairtrade Organic Cotton and FSC-certified rubber pairs. The company is so up-front about their production process that you can track exactly where, how, and who made the shoes online. These kicks were made for walking—and recycling. | |
| Designer Ashley Watson gives haute couture accessories a run for their money with her swank bags, all exclusively made of recycled materials. The Heron carry all is a favorite, looking sharp in rich deep brown leather with a durable hemp and cotton twill interior. | |
| The pinch-your-cheeks cute onesies ($30.00) by barley & birch are printed with graphics transferred in water-based inks. Parents go wild for the quirky pieces, and the fact that their little ones won’t be exposed to any nasty toxic chemicals while wrapped in the hip designs. | |
| Discarded fabrics such as swatch squares and production off-cuts are transformed into beautiful pastiche dresses, skirts, and color-blocked tees by London-based line From Somewhere. These “scraps” look anything but scrappy, wow-ing the eye in autumnal greens, pinks, and oranges. | |
| Help to blow the whistle on war in the Congo by purchasing one of these special necklaces ($34.00-104.00), part of an admirable campaign for peace in the region. Get awestruck by their altruistic slant and chic appearance, which shines in finishes like pinky Hamptons Rose and solid gold. | |
| There’s no need to knock on wood in the name of conservation with these natural and toxic-free timepieces ($119.00-139.00). Each watch is uniquely colored according to the wood chosen to make it (sustainably sourced, of course), and best of all, for each piece purchased a tree is planted in conjunction with the American Forests campaign. | |
| Here’s a men’s line that’s definitely in the ‘Nau.’ Recycled poly trenches, urbane jackets with epaulet detailing, and organic slack pants that fit to a tee are just a few of the handsome pieces that make average dudes look like dashing—and still way cool—men. | |
If the mariniere tees and off the shoulder slouchy shirts from “organic agriculture” design outfit Popupshop were just a wee bit bigger, we’d definitely be sporting them ourselves. Fall essentials for wee ones include this army green Outdoor Jacket (€98,00) and sassy Leopard Stockings (€17,00)—also perfect for giving kids an “eco-cation” in sustainable design. |
|
| Despite its name, you won’t be treading lightly on rougher terrain in insulating outdoors apparel by GoLite. Recycled poly Thermal Wind Jackets ($140.00) and Soft Shell hoodies ($100.00) in striking color combos lock in heat when you’re battling the elements on the trail and beyond. GoLite also strives to greening the world through a carbon-light production process, a fact that’ll make you feel warm and fuzzy on the inside, too. |
