Conscious Closet Club 2025 Kick Off

Join Chicago’s Conscious Closet Club for our monthly meeting, the first Monday evening of each month.

An initiative of Chicago Fair Trade, the Chicago Conscious Closet Club is a community of Chicagoans with an interest in ethical clothing and fashion who learn from each other, share ideas, and have fun. We took our name from Elizabeth L. Cline’s 2019 book, The Conscious Closet: The Revolutionary Guide to Looking Good While Doing Good. While Elizabeth’s book has been an inspiration for events and social media content, we also go beyond the topics covered in the book, diving into anything and everything related to ethical fashion.

Starting in January 2025, we are hosting monthly meetings on the first Monday evening of each month to create a consistent touchpoint for our community. At these meetings, you can expect to connect with other folks who want to curate a more ethically-minded closet, and learn something about the current state of the fashion industry and what we can do to be more mindful in how we interact with it. Meetings will be held virtually every month, although we will be offering some opportunities to meet up in person periodically as well.
