H&M's Conscious Collection

Conscious Collection is a part of H&M's work towards a more sustainable future in fashion.

The Conscious garments are made from a number of eco-friendly materials such as:

- Organic Cotton: Grown without pesticides or synthetic fertilisers and has the same high quality as conventional cotton

- Recycled Polyester: The main source for recycled polyester is PET plastic bottles and waste raw material from production, it saves natural resources, saves energy in production and has a lower greenhosue gase emissions and use of chemicals

- Recycled Polyamide: Ideal for jersey, made from textile production waste as well as fishing nets or carpets! It saves natural resources, energy in production and also has low emissions of chemicals.

- Recycled Plastic: Great material for hair accessories and jewellery, as well as the H&M shopping bags.

- Organic Linen: Grown without pesticides or synthetic fertilisters; the result is safer for farmers and has a reduced environmental impact. It has the same quality as regular linen with no use of genetically modified fibres.

- Recycled Cotton: Made from textile remnants, woven and spun into new fabrics.

- Recycled Wool: From worn out woollen garments and remnants of fabric; reduced the use of land and chemicals.

- TENCEL: Silk-like renewable material produced from cellulose with minimal environmental impact.

- Organic Hemp: Can be like linen and cotton.

- Organic Jute: Grown in a sustainable environment and is the same high quality as conventional jute with zero chemical emissions.


These are some of the new pieces to the Conscious Collection at H&M...

I'm liking every piece from this new collection! Very much diggin' the palm print/exotic theme to this range, and the reasonable prices!


The full collection can be seen here.

Let me know which pieces you will be purchasing ready for summer!
