The Slow Fashion is here to stay. Every day we are more aware that everything we do counts in preserving the planet. fast fashion is creating an environmental crisis. The clothes we throw away every season and every year are collapsing our planet. 80 billion garments are sold annually worldwide. This massive and rapid consumption drives an unstoppable cycle of production, making the textile industry the second most polluting on the planet. No less than 20% of the toxins that end up in our water come from this industry. Therefore, dressing sustainably will cease to be a trend and become an ecological and social value. If we're already clear about this... what's stopping us from investing in Spain-brand sustainable fashion?
Here are five reasons to start thinking in terms of national fashion.
Shall we begin? Take note!
1- Greater proximity, higher quality. The closer we are to our factories and suppliers, the higher the quality we can provide you. Ideally, all links in the chain are connected through a visit or a call . And that's how we work here, side by side with our people. Proximity ultimately means excellence. We can monitor daily and detect any errors on the fly.
2-Greater proximity, greater energy savings. Buying Spanish Brand fashion also means minimizing CO2 emissions. The clothes we wear have been traveling for just a few hours until they reach our hands. Furthermore, in the case of Momoc, as with other Spanish sustainable fashion brands, we strive to ensure the shortest possible distance between our factory and our warehouses. And that's exactly what we do: the factory is just a few minutes away from the warehouse!
3-You contribute to promoting crafts and trades. Our way of understanding crafts and trades is also culture. That's why Fast fashion not only harms the environment but also undermines the identity of each community. Not so long ago, traveling from country to country, we could see different garments made by people from different cultures. These distinctive features are evident in the way fabrics are treated, the way colors are combined, the way details are introduced... How long has it been since you saw them? Rediscovering Spanish fashion is also rediscovering your culture.
4-You benefit the national economy, and this, of course, benefits you as well. Investing in sustainable fashion, Marca España, also means investing in jobs, creating complementary local industries, and achieving profits that are taxed here. We won't go into too much detail on this point. Our specialty isn't economics, but we would like to encourage you to remember this motivation more often. We would like you to keep in mind that doing a little more research before buying can lead you to dress better and differently, and to live better, in every sense.
5-You strengthen your sense of belonging and the perception of living in community. We do not realize how large-scale industrialization and Fast fashion , specifically, feeds on the most impersonal individualism. Big industry dehumanizes us. It isolates us, creating a distorted idea of the individual: we are lonely numbers consuming identical, numbered products. The global image of the barcode placed on the same garment model here and across the Atlantic obscures the unique aspects of the place to which we belong. Our community is warmer and closer than the global image of the barcode. Behind the sustainable fashion of Marca España, there is a community of people with whom you share many things.
We can assure you that these five reasons are just a small sample of everything you and we gain by investing in our sustainable fashion. Plus, Marca España designs are addictive ;). Once you delve into this market, you'll never stop discovering new brands, trends, and possible combinations.
