Thank you so much for attending Style & Sustainability: A Fashion Revolution, on Friday, December 6th presented by the City of Santa Monica’s Office of Sustainability and the Environment, Lexus Santa Monica and Sustainable Works. We hope you enjoyed the event and we encourage you to take action to make your wardrobe and the fashion industry more sustainable. We would very much appreciate it if you would fill out this very short SURVEY. It shouldn’t take more than one minute.

We also encourage you to take action!

Action Items:

  1. Buy less

  2. Buy smart by voting with your dollars: choose sustainably manufactured clothing and certified organic and recycled fibers, wool, viscose, Tencel, Modal and Cupro

  3. Repair and Reuse, find a great local tailor who can do custom alterations and repairs.

  4. Recycle – when you are done with a wardrobe item recycle it instead of sending it to the landfill.

  5. Support new circular business models in ecofashion, such as renting Rent the Runway, buying vintage/used Assistance League of Santa Monica, The Real Real, The Renewal Shop, and swapping Global Fashion Exchange.

  6. Look for third party certifications, which assure full transparency: Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), Fair Trade Certified, and Cradle to Cradle.

  7. Join the Fashion Revolution! https://www.fashionrevolution.org/
