If there is one style of tie that causes more debate than the other, it’s the   paisley tie . These have gone in and out of style many times since the start of the 20th century. That is why so many men tend to shy away from wearing a paisley tie, while others love the individuality it brings to their overall look. If you are preparing for your big day and you’re a big fan of the   paisley tie   or your hubby is and wants to incorporate it into his suit, you may have already read elsewhere that this is a big no-no.

The cotton and synthetic fibers from which our clothes are made require a lot of land, water and energy. This contributes to environmental degradation, pollution from harmful chemicals, greenhouse gas emissions throughout the supply chain and piles of waste.  The people who make our clothes often face hazardous working conditions and very low wages, but the lack of transparency across the fashion supply chain means brands are not responsible for labor rights abuses and local environmental damage. We urgently need to change our relationship in fast fashion to protect the planet and the world's underserved workers. Our goals for sustainable fashion : Face the fast fashion industry and fight the overconsumption of clothing. Promote the reuse, repair and redistribution of clothing and textiles. Support ethical and sustainable fashion brands . Making brands accountable for their sustainability practices. What we can do Buy fewer clothes - ask yourself if you really need them before buy...
