Henry David Thoreau once famously remarked that doing good did not agree with his constitution. Maybe, just maybe, that’s because the H&M Conscious Collection wasn’t an option in the 1800s. Seriously — H&M’s sustainable fall line-up is so affordable and stylish, it’s tough not to do a little good by investing in these earth-friendly pieces.
The collection earns its sustainable status by relying on recycled polyester, organic cotton, recycled wool, or TENCEL™ Lyocell to construct its pieces. Here are some highlights from the new range.
