Up til this point I had not really looked too much into environmentally friendly clothing, so I was naturally surprised when I discovered so many different companies and brands, which do just that-make eco-friendly products. One of the companies that I discovered was Quail. Quail was founded just in 2006, in the UK, by a couple who were curious about not only organic foods, but organic clothes(without the oh so "natural" and "organic" look). So, far they only have a womens line, which looks great. Not only are they trying to help out by making organic clothes, but they also do as much as they can to see that every step of the producing of the clothes is done so in an eco-friendly manner. For example they even use recycled packaging materials for the shipping to and fro of their goods to the naturally found shells that are then made into buttons that they use on alot of their garments. All information about Quail was gathered from(http://www.quailbymail.co.uk/).
There are so many different designers that are currently working with organic products and various green goods in their garments.
The following video takes you on a tour in an eco-friendly clothing company, and shows the processes of making their clothes. One of the coolest things, in the video is that you, the customer can accutally specialize your garments! It is a little lengthy(about 9mins) but its a great little video that provides an inside look at the manufacturing processes.
