Gen-Z is changing the world by making conscious fashion choices

In recent years, conversations around sustainability have become a mainstay in the fashion world. In the past two years, as the world lives in a pandemic, these conversations have only gotten more prominent. Gen-Z and millennial shoppers in particular are acutely aware of the rising environmental concerns. Gen Zs have increasingly risen to question and seek alternatives from fashion retailers who lack sustainable goals. Young adults between 16-29 have increasingly adopted more conscious, sustainable shopping practices. Below is a glimpse at how celebrities too are adopting sustainable fashion choices:
