How ethical fashion brands are marketing to conscious consumers
Eco-friendly fashion often comes with bit of a stigma. But while it was once thought of as uncool or only a concern for hippies, the tables appear to be turning. According to a recent Unilever study, sustainability issues are increasingly affecting shopping decisions, with 21% of people saying they would support brands that clearly convey sustainability aspects through their marketing and packaging. This extends beyond food and every day consumer goods into clothing, too, with a multitude of fashion brands subsequently taking environmental and ethical factors into consideration during the production process. That being said, research suggests that it’s not always easy to market eco-friendly fashion.
The rise of the conscious consumer
Today we are consumers who are ethically motivated and conscious of how the decisions we make as shoppers impact society.

Companies have traditionally implemented Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives to convey their social values to consumers.

LONDON, United Kingdom — Earlier this year, H&M announced its aim to be 100 percent circular and renewable by 2030. The ability to recycle this quantity without degradation would mean endless yet sustainable fast fashion. But is it really feasible for one of the world’s largest fast fashion retailers — which reported revenues of over $2 billion in 2016 — to "close the loop" in a little over a decade? By 2030 it is predicted that we will be using two Earths worth of resources and the demand for clothing is expected to have risen by 63 percent according to the Copenhagen Fashion Summit's recent Pulse of The Fashion Industry report written in collaboration with the Boston Consulting Group. As we hurtle along this trajectory, can we afford to put all our bets on being able to make current rates of fashion consumption sustainable?
