Female Owned Sustainable Fashion Brands That are Thriving in 2021
By Mohammed Aljarba | March 21, 2021
Throughout history, no generation was able to develop global awareness at the same rate that our generation has. With every year passing, we become more and more aware of what’s happening around us and this year was no different. 2020 has taught us that we take everything in our life for granted, that we take our earth for granted, causing us to look for ways to be more sustainable with things we use every day that we never considered before, such as fashion. The more that fashion becomes accessible and cheaper with the help of fast fashion brands, the more that it affects our planet. Here are several up-and-coming sustainable fashion brands that you should look into the next time you’re in the mood for a closet makeover.

The Epoch is a one-woman team fashion brand created in 2018 in London by Tirinidad Segura. The Epoch is dedicated to making vegan, cruelty free, sustainable clothing. The brand’s best seller is the chinoiserie print clothing, which you can find on jackets, skirts, pants and even face masks, so you’ll never have to worry about a face mask ruining your outfit’s color coordination. What is really amazing about The Epoch is that they make clothing that is not limited to one fashion era or season. Instead, they create timeless articles of clothing, so you’ll never have to worry about them going out of style. We all know it’s about recyclable fashion these days.
