eco fashion by Quail by Mail
From Devon, England, Quail by Mail is a chic eco friendly fashion store online. Their organic cotton comes from India and is hand loomed and dyed with no petro chemicals. They even use sustainable sea shell buttons!
Other ingredients used in their clothing include South African shweshwe fabric, recycled antique batik from Indonesia and organic wool from England. Even the models are local to the area too.
The below silk vest is hand loomed in India and has sustainable shell buttons. Can be worn at work or for going out. The company uses a silking process where the moths are allowed to leave the cocoons naturally and fly off to start the cycle over again. Its called Ahimsa Silk and has bee sanctioned by the Dalai Lama as well as People for Animals.
The below versatile pink dress is simple and elegant. Its certified organic with non-GM cotton and made with fair trade labor!
This ethical fashion is chic. See Qailbymail.co.uk

I like this line of clothing on the Quailbymail.co.uk site !
their products seem to be “green” in nature, and the colors and design are very pretty.
Thanks, I will be going back to purchase.

Hand loomed fabric is a good choice for clothing because of it’s interesting texture. Also, clothing that is hand dyed is always more vibrant than clothes that are made with manufactured fabric.

By popular demand Quail is now doing wholesale organic and fairtrade clothing in the UK and Europe. A true testiment that consumers want to see more organic cotton clothing such as dresses, tops, shirts and blouses on the high street. Clothing which is also made in Britain, as all of Quail’s garments are, is a growing trend! I think this year shoppers are going to have a real eco Christmas!
