Organic Pick of the Week: SUST Organic Apparel
Over the course of my journey toward a more sustainable lifestyle, one of my favorite projects has been greening my wardrobe. And in my opinion, out of the growing number of eco-fashion options, SUSTorganic apparel is the cream of the crop.
SUST clothing is colorful, comfortable and stylish - perfect for an active lifestyle like mine. SUST clothes are versatile too; I feel like I could wear my SUST 'mod dress' to a fancy dinner or to one of our shoots on a sustainable farm. SUST uses 100% certified organic cotton grown in the US, and the garments are manufactured ethically in California.
Last weekend, I had the pleasure of meeting SUST CEO Tristan Gribbon at the NOW Showcase in New York. Tristan is one of those beautiful and inspiring women who radiate enthusiasm for their work and support others on the path toward positive change. You can tell that she not only enjoys helping women adapt to a more eco-friendly lifestyle through clothing but that she truly cares about the larger mission of sustainability in all sectors.
Tristan co-founded SUST in 2007. Here's an excerpt from the SUST mission:
"SUST is taking sustainable style to another level with a line of essential pieces in classic styles that will stand the test of time. Each piece of clothing has social and ecological responsibility woven into its very fabric with organic fibers that are produced with fair labor practices in California."
You can purchase SUST clothing online or at your local clothing boutique (if your retailer doesn't carry SUST yet, be sure to ask them!)
