One of the joys of making conscious fashion choices with style is that you can be reviving a dwindling craft with your purchase; take Hiut Denim, for example. The brand is based in a small, picturesque spot in Wales where jean-making took place for 40 years, until production was stopped and outsourced to cheaper alternatives. Now, Huit exports its high-end, handmade jeans globally and has created new employment for those who had previously worked in the old factory.
Looking for something smarter? A knockout suit can last a lifetime — Kiton’s cashmere checked single-breasted suit makes a statement and can be mixed up with separates for a more laid-back look. Cashmere itself is a biodegradable, renewable fiber that can last for decades; Rifo takes it a step further by using upcycled cashmere in its Federico scarf.
