What is slow fashion or sustainable fashion?

At Monpiel, we are committed from a social and environmental perspective. We use recycled eco-friendly materials and work with small artisan workshops, creating dignified and responsible job opportunities. We ensure that every product we make is crafted with high-quality materials designed to last. We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint and working with low environmental impact materials. From the selection of materials to the packaging, every part of our process takes into account the well-being of the planet.

We believe that every purchase should be mindful, which is why we promote more responsible and sustainable consumption. We encourage you to invest in pieces that you truly need and can enjoy for years, rather than following the fast fashion trend. That’s precisely what sustainable fashion or slow fashion is: it’s a way of thinking, making, and consuming fashion consciously and intentionally, promoting care for production processes, ensuring the quality of every product created so that it is durable and sustainable over time. You can learn more about our handcrafted manufacturing process on our website.

Main characteristics of slow fashion

1. Quality over quantity

The creation of durable garments is prioritised, ones that not only withstand the passage of time in terms of their design, but also in their physical condition.

2. Environmental sustainability

Slow fashion promotes the use of natural, organic, and recycled materials that have a lower environmental impact.

3. Timeless fashion

Slow fashion advocates for versatile pieces that can be worn for years. A clear example is our leather bags, crafted from authentic leather, in a sustainable way while promoting the social fabric of our country.

Why is slow fashion important?

1. Reduction of environmental impact

The fashion industry is one of the most polluting in the world. Mass garment production often involves the use of large quantities of water, chemicals, and energy. By opting for slow fashion, we are helping to reduce the demand for excessive production.

2. Longevity and reduced consumption

The goal is not to have many garments, but to invest in quality. Well-made pieces can last for years, reducing the need for constant purchases. This not only benefits your wallet but also contributes to more responsible consumption.

3. Personal and unique style

Fast fashion promotes a mass-produced, homogeneous style. In contrast, slow fashion encourages you to cultivate a personal style by selecting pieces that represent you and suit your needs.
