While sustainable fashion is effective in thought, second-hand shopping can pose difficulties when it comes to size inclusivity. It can be harder to find the right sizes through methods like thrifting because, unlike retail stores, there are less options. This is something that Eliza and Nick from Smiish and Co. want to change. Their new clothing label promotes plus-size sustainable pieces. Right now they are making graphic t-shirts that go from sizes L to 4XL, and are hoping to expand their label in the future. On their TikTok page you can find informational videos on the importance of slow fashion brands, the Smiish and Co label, and styling tips. Go check out their website here.
I hope you enjoy keeping up these TikTok creators as much as I do, and find inspiration from their sustainability tips and love for fashion.
