These designer scarves by the Fairtrade Foundation are the result of an unprecedented collaboration between some of Britain’s most popular designers.
Made exclusively out of fair-trade cotton, these scarves are the Fairtrade Foundation’s attempt to bring socially conscious fashion to the forefront of global awareness. In addition to their ethically inclined advantages, however, the scarves are also definitively stylish, colorful and reasonably priced. The scarves will be available exclusively via the group’s website for those hoping to get their hands on these extremely limited pieces while also supporting a good cause. Hopefully, the Fairtrade Foundation’s successful scarf production will encourage other companies around the world to adopt eco-friendly and socially aware practices into their business models as well.
