Ethical Fashion Brand That You Need To Know About: Henning
I've missed you guys so much, I'm so happy to be back here with you all again. I hope that all of you have enjoyed your weekend to the fullest.
I really have been enjoying finding new sustainable Fashion Brands, I try my best to find more ways to be sustainable in the Fashion world, whether it's thrifting or finding new ways to wear my existing clothing so that I won't harm Mother Earth even more than I already do. I was reading the September issue of Instyle Magazine, and I saw a pair of Biker shorts from a brand that I never heard of before, so I went to the website and I was impressed with the founder's story.
Lauren Chan's spent her career as a fashion editor advocating for size inclusion but despite doing everything in her power to make the industry more inclusive, She has never felt completely welcome. (Such a horrible feeling to have in the Fashion Industry.) Whether she was a size 14 trying to fit into the tiny seats at fashion shows or a size 20 trying to get dressed for work, being plus-size has long made me feel on the fringes. While fashion media has made plenty of strides in size inclusion, it’s evident that most brands are still hesitant to offer their clothing to women size 12 and up.
For years, everyone around me has worn designer outfits while she has been limited to cheap, fast-fashion and the effects of which are tangible: being perceived as less capable, not feeling confident, and dealing with things like pants ripping in the thighs and shirts busting open. Eventually, she became downright angry with the disadvantage she faced simply for having the biggest body in the room. And she wasn’t alone. Friends, readers, and followers have all shared similar sentiments with her, whether their skirt had ripped during a morning commute or they’d been told that losing weight and getting a new wardrobe would be good for their career.
Their stories all have the same terrible takeaway: by being excluded from the world of quality clothing, we have internalized the messaging that we must not be successful enough to afford nice things, that we should change ourselves in order to fit smaller clothes, and that we are less valuable people than our straight-size peers.
They built a collection of luxury plus-size staples like wool blazers, silk dresses, and classic coats, and we’re not making any compromises on quality, craftsmanship, or design. They want us to wear our clothes and feel as smart, sharp, and powerful as we truly are.
When it comes to my personal style, Simple and Classic are where it is at. I saw the Ribbed Knit Dress and love how versatile it is. A very stretchy, sweat-wicking ribbed-knit dress. They tell you size down from your typical size for a perfect fit This is priced at $289.00
