Sustainable Wardrobe: Practical Advice and Projects for Eco-Friendly Fashion


Sustainable Wardrobe is a volume in a green living series; this volume written by Sophie Benson. Released 12th Sept 2023 by Quarto on their White Lion imprint, it's 160 pages and is available in hardcover and ebook formats. 

Dwindling resources and an ever increasing climate catastrophe has caused pretty much everyone on the planet to re-evaluate their consumption. This book is part of a series aimed at helping readers to make more informed and responsible decisions. 

The book has an accessible and logical layout. Information is gathered thematically: background/waste and fashion, assessing the reader's wardrobe, shopping habits & consumption, clothing maintenance, and repair. The tutorials are streamlined, sensible, accessible, and well photographed. 

There are a number of good exercises included for helping readers track their current wardrobe, find out what changes are practical for them, and make a plan to implement changes in a reasonable way.

Four stars. Well written and useful. This would be a good choice for public or school library acquisition, home use, and potentially for classroom units. 

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
