I'm a Stylist—Here Are 7 Sustainable Brands I Always Wear
In our Ask a Stylist series, we're tapping a new expert each month to weigh in on all of their style insights. Return each week for a professional's perspective on what to know in fashion.
When it comes to stylists, Rachael Wang is one of the most sought-after in the business. She's renowned for her razor-sharp eye for editorial shoots and iconic street style looks, as her exacting taste in fashion is simply exquisite. Beyond just aesthetics, though, the New York–based stylist has made another name for herself as an early champion of environmentally friendly fashion, ethical brands, and secondhand pieces, and she is actively working to change what people think about sustainable fashion.
Her refreshing approach to fashion carries over to the outfits you’ll spot her wearing IRL, so I was naturally curious to find out the sustainable brands that are in the heaviest rotation in her wardrobe. These are all labels she’s worn from the streets at fashion week to her Instagram feed, so prepare to be inspired. Ahead, Wang is sharing the seven sustainable designers she always wears. I guarantee you’ll reconsider what you think about sustainable brands.
"I love that Mara Hoffman doesn't let her responsible design process limit her creativity. Her pieces are dramatic, joyful, and unapologetically fashion yet made from low-environmental fabrics and in small factories where workers are paid fairly.""Thrifting is my favorite low-impact way to shop. Levi's has made it even easier to find perfectly worn-in jeans with its secondhand site.""Wonther makes beautiful classic jewelry certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council.""Jungmaven makes my all-time favorite T-shirt, which happens to be made from hemp. It's been making tees since the '90s out of this lower-environmental-impact textile. I also really love its chore coats.""Sonia Carrasco's collection is a unique take on minimalism, and I love that she designs and manufactures all within one city, Barcelona, and with certified organic and certified recycled textiles.""I'm really excited about made-to-order fashion as a way to reduce the enormous amount of waste the fashion industry is responsible for producing. The entire .Blacktogrey collection is made to order as well as recycled through a take-back program.""I wish more fashion brands were like Back Beat Co. Founder and Creative Director Isadora Alvarez is absolutely uncompromising in her ideals when it comes to the textiles she designs with and the labor conditions and wages of her workers."
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
