Sustainable trading remains a political issue for the fashion industry despite the soaring levels of ethical consumerism in the UK and the rising spend on ethical fashion. Clothes and accessories that meet such criteria are usually made using organic raw materials, such as cotton grown without pesticides, or re-used materials such as recycled plastic from old soda bottles. Eco-fashions don't involve the use of harmful chemicals and bleaches to color fabrics—and are made by people earning fair wages in healthy working conditions.
The top ten brands that are Eco-Friendly.
Amana, Annie Greenabelle, Beyond Skin, Ciel, Edun, Howies, Katharine E Hamnett, Kuyichi, People Tree, Stella McCartney.
Amana was one of the favourite discoveries at last season's London Fashion Week Estethica exhibition, an area dedicated to the best eco-clothing labels out there.

Ethical fashion is growing everyday, the public are noticing they should be more environment friendly. However People Eco clothing is more expensive then fast fashion, my opinion is that more expensive the clothing is the more Sustainable they are. Even cheap shops like primark are doing Eco clothing.
