What Is Vegan Leather Made Of? Many Plant Leathers Are Being Used (greenmatters.com)

Yes, plant leather is a great idea (not better than animal leather, in my personal opinion, but that's down to each individual's thoughts on the matter). But unfortunately much of it just can't replicate many of real leather's beneficial properties- and a lot of plant leathers heavily involve plastic in their production. (source)

Look, ALL clothing production needs to be more sustainable at this point. The chemicals involved in tanning actual leather, unless it's organic leather, aren't good for the environment either. And I will never rag on someone for their choice to avoid real leather- we're all just trying, I hope, to make the best choices according to our values and within the confines of a broken system (as long as we're not hurting anyone else). For me, the massive habitat loss and environmental destruction caused by plastics production and waste is a greater evil than the deaths of individual animals in the production of meat and/or leather. So I choose real leather and try to make each piece last as long as I can, aware that any choice I make will have environmental impacts and is not perfect. Someone else might see it differently, and I really am not in a position to judge their choices.

However.

The term "vegan leather" is blatant greenwashing, and 99% of the time it applies to plastic. If people prefer to wear plastic to avoid real leather, that's fine, but they- and moreover companies -need to be honest about that. Just like synthetic fabrics should be called plastic, so should synthetic leather. Even some of the allegedly "plant-based" stuff, it turns out.

I'm honest that my real leather is animal hide. Time for the faux-green fashion industry to display some honesty of its own.

#ask #moss-and-wildflowers #also obviously the meat and leather industry needs to be more humane #I'm not opposed to the use of animal products- they WILL eat us in some form one day after all -but they should be treated with respect #so that their lives- however short -are Good #now I AM pissed at the largescale framing of animal clothing products as Evil that drives up the price of wool and leather for #those of us who want it #newsflash: I live in Massachusetts. it's still cool or cold here most of the year. if I don't want to wear plastic there are no alternative #and yet because of misinformation by the likes of P*TA farmers are forced to compost their wool #because there's not much demand for it. making it nigh-impossible to get at reasonable prices

givenchy s22

such a cool collection ! edgy colors and materials with soft silhouettes x

idk if most will agree but i really like matthew william’s givenchy better than claire waight keller’s

something about his last few collections really resonates with my person style, maybe that’s why !

I love wool and cotton and linen clothing, I love leather bags and shoes and coats and jackets, I love brass and silver jewelry. I love how they all look and feel and function, but more than anything else I love the attention they take. The ritual to clean and condition and care for. The mending, the proofing, the polishing. I love having a relationship with my material objects.
