What is slow fashion or sustainable fashion?

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

We believe that every purchase should be made consciously, which is why we encourage more responsible and sustainable consumption. We urge you to invest in pieces you truly need and can enjoy for years, rather than following the fast fashion cycle. This is exactly what sustainable fashion, or slow fashion, is all about: it’s a way of thinking, making, and consuming fashion consciously and intentionally, promoting care for the production processes, and ensuring the quality of every product created so that it remains 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 focus is on creating durable garments that not only withstand the test of time in terms of 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 favors versatile pieces that can be worn for years. A clear example of this are our leather bags, made from genuine 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 production of clothing often involves the use of large amounts 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 own many garments, but to invest in quality. Well-made garments 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, homogeneous style. On the other hand, slow fashion invites you to cultivate a personal style by selecting pieces that represent you and fit your needs.
