Sustainable fashion is gaining ground in Nigeria and it’s not just a trend, it’s a movement.
• More designers are now embracing eco-friendly fabrics, recycled materials, and ethical production. • Thrift (okrika) culture has evolved from a budget choice to a sustainable lifestyle. • Fashion brands are creating timeless pieces instead of fast-fashion that ends up in landfills. • Young Nigerians are pushing for “slow fashion” buy less, wear longer, re-style creatively. • Social media has helped promote DIY fashion, upcycling old clothes, and shopping consciously.
Sustainable fashion is stylish, smart, and necessary. As Nigeria faces climate and waste challenges, fashion must also play its part in protecting the planet.
