Conscious Life & Style’s ultimate curated guide to responsibly-made clothing, accessories, and home goods.
A few notes before we dive in!
Conscious Life & Style is taking the 15 Percent Pledge, which is the commitment to feature at least 15% Black-owned brands. The (B) next to certain brands on this directory denotes that the brand is Black-owned. There are currently 45 Black-owned brands on this list. For more, check out this guide to 100+ Black-owned conscious fashion, home, beauty, and lifestyle brands.
This guide features primarily womenswear. If you’re looking for men’s ethical fashion brands, check out Eco Stylist’s Sustainable Brand Directory!
Finally, if you’re just starting out on your conscious fashion journey, or are feeling overwhelmed, I recommend starting—or re-starting—with a solid foundation! I have a free Closet Inventory and Budget Template that will help you track what you have, what you want/need, how much you’re spending, and when it’s the right time to invest.
(Note: This guide includes affiliates and partners. As always, all brands meet strict standards for sustainability and are brands we truly love — and that we think you’ll love too.)
