It seems that calls for luxury brands to show corporate social responsibility are being answered! In the lead up to London Fashion Week, the Environmental Justice Foundation is releasing a series of organic, fair-trade T-shirts alongside big names like Christian Lacriox, Alice Temperley, Luella and Katharine Hamnett. It’s a golden age for eco-fashion in London, with the Environmental Justice Foundation setting up a pop-up shop to sell the ethically made T-shirts, designed to draw attention to the plight of child labourers in Uzbekistan. Aside from looking great, these T-shirts are also making the labels they represent look great! Much of the child labour in Uzbekistan involves cotton farming, and we don’t need to explain the importance of cotton to the fashion industry. Most people probably don’t consider where all these fine materials actually come from, so it’s nice to see labels with some cachet shining some light on important global issues.Image credit: ecouterre.com
