ELSOM
This company uses sustainably farmed organic cotton throughout their collection of men and women’s clothing. Most noted are the Elsom Organic Skinny jeans, which I have. And they aren’t kidding when they say skinny- I had to have the button moved because it came off when I tried to button them. Embarrassing, but at least it happened the second I put them on, not while doing something else embarrassing at a bar or in line at the coffee shop or something.
But as for the other cool looking clothes they have on their site, as far as I can tell, you have to actually be in the ad to get to wear them, because I can’t find anywhere but Net-a-Porter who carries them, and they only have the jeans. But really, the jeans are enough- they’re that cute.

Delicious Del Forte
Del Forte
Del Forte has been at the forefront of organic denim for the past three years. They are dedicated to fair trade and sustainable design, and more importantly, they make cute jeans. I have a pair and people literally chase me down the street asking me where I got them. I tell them they came from a small store in Albania because I don’t want people wearing the same jeans as me. But then here I am, letting you all know how awesome these jeans are. Oh well.
Their jeans are 100 percent organically grown cotton, and when you order from them, you order gets written down on recycled paper, because their entire office is eco-friendly.

Seattle Blues, Sling and Stones
Sling & Stones
Sling and Stones is a jeans company out of Seattle, dedicated to sustainable clothing production. They use American-grown organic Supima cotton, a natural fiber that is extremely fine and soft to the touch. Their denim is also low in those pesky pesticides that plague so many other brands of denim.
They use organic Fair Trade twill for the pockets, so you can shove you hands in there and feel good that no one suffered to help you look good. And you will look good.
(I have to warn y’all- these jeans would fall under the “eco-lux” category, as they run about $300 a pair). But still--
