Today, the fashion industry is one of the most polluting sectors on the planet. The positive point is that many brands are turning to more responsible production methods. So, if you are looking for ethical and eco-responsible fashion brands to wear this summer, L'Exception has selected for you brands that stand out for their commitment and sustainability. Brands that combine style, comfort and responsibility to allow you to spend a summer with a clear conscience.

What is an eco-responsible brand?


An eco-responsible fashion brand is a company that is committed to minimizing its environmental impact while producing quality goods and services. This means implementing sustainable and ethical practices throughout the supply chain, from manufacturing to packaging and distribution.
Responsible brands use recycled, organic, sustainable or compostable materials for their products, and emphasize the use of renewable energy sources. They are also transparent about their practices and strive to reduce their carbon footprint and their use of chemicals.
At L'Exception, we have defined several criteria ECO X CEPTION, sustainable products are recognizable by a logo, for the brand to be considered responsible, at least 75% of its items must be sustainable. A non-ECO X CEPTION brand can have ECO X CEPTION products and vice versa. Thus, to help you make the right choice, you can filter the products you are looking for by sustainability criteria.

Why opt for sustainable accessories?


Purchasing sustainable accessories for the summer has multiple benefits for nature and consumers. These parts are generally of higher quality, which translates into longer life. Additionally, eco-friendly brands tend to use materials that are safer for human health, which can be beneficial for allergy sufferers. Finally, the purchase of eco-responsible accessories helps protect the oceans and the environment while supporting committed brands.
