This month the Soil Association are running their ‘Organic September’ initiative to raise awareness of the benefits of organic. When you hear organic, it’s generally fruit and veg that springs to mind but organic cotton is steadily becoming more prevalent in the fashion industry too. Used by Stella McCartney, Zara of all people, and H&M, who frequently top the list as the world’s biggest user of organic cotton. Organic production involves the use of natural pesticides and as well as being good for the environment, has proven to provide more jobs and through reducing exposure to harsh chemicals, better health and general quality of life for farmers.
I was asked by the lovely Noorin to do a guest post for the Outsider blog featuring one of her lovely organic cotton shirt dresses, which are beautifully soft and so easy to wear. To find out more about Outsider read my interview with Noorin here, and click here to see the full blog post over on the Outsider blog.
