Christy Dawn for Transitioning to Fall

One of My Favorite Sustainable Dress Makers

Christy Dawn makes beautiful dresses that are made without destroying the Earth. The ladies behind the brand are trying to save the planet from the wasteful fashion industry by making dresses out of deadstock materials. Every dress is upcycled and designed to be a timeless piece that you can cherish forever. Like they say in their slogan they “honor mother Earth.” And you can tell that they strongly stand by these words with everything they do. If only every brand strived to have the ethics that Christy Dawn has. As a result, the fashion industry would not be the second most wasteful industry. Therefore, that is why I believe other fashion brands need to start following in Christy Dawn’s footsteps.

Farm to Closet Clothing Brand

They even recently started branching out of sourcing deadstock materials and started sourcing natural fabric like organic cotton. They believe in creating a supply chain that supports regenerative farming techniques. By sourcing materials from the craftsman that grow organic cotton and other natural textiles, essentially focusing on becoming a farm to closet, clothing brand. How cool is that? In addition, Christy Dawn is re-shaping the fashion industry through soil regeneration. Which will essentially put life back into the ecosystems that were destroyed by conventional farming.

Why Buying Ethical and Sustainable Clothing Is So Important

I have a much clearer conscious when I buy clothing that is ethically and sustainably made over a fast-fashion piece. There is so much corruption when it comes to where we buy our clothing. Start thinking about the fabric your clothing is made out of. How was it grown? Was it sourced ethically from animals? Was it sourced ethically by the people who made these items? Then there is the dye process that was used. Where it was shipped from. If the materials were an effort to reduce our waste by reusing materials. And SO much more.

I think about these things every time I make a purchase. For me, if something is done right, I will save my money, invest in the clothing I really want to wear, and then cherish every item I buy. That means buying something new once a month in the hopes to fill my wardrobe with many things I can’t wait to wear again and again.

Why I Am Investing in Clothing from Christy Dawn

This gorgeous orange dress was an investment that I had been saving up for. The color is a gorgeous earth tone that is perfect for transitioning from summer to fall. I have been planning on buying it all summer long because I really didn’t own anything in this color. And I have been looking to add more maxi styles to my closet. I figured out that maxis are my most worn dresses in my closet.

Identifying these little things about what you love to wear most is key to buying clothing that is intentional and not impulsive. I own one other Christy Dawn dress that I bought last year for fall and winter and I wore it a ton. So when I choose another Christy Dawn dress carefully I know the dress will be another cherished item. There is just something that is so comfortable, yet luxurious about their designs. They are always an amazing day dress option that you can throw on and go.
