Conscious Closet Club July Monthly Meet-Up

Join us on Monday, July 7 for our monthly Conscious Closet Club monthly community meet-up on Zoom from 6:30-7:30 PM  for a friendly, lively discussion of all things ethical fashion. If you want to be part of an anti-fast fashion community, learn more about the fashion industry, and connect with fellow Chicagoans who are working to build a more responsible wardrobe, this is the group for you!

This month, Andrea Dennis will share her expertise on closet editing. You may know Andrea, our former board chair, as the emcee extraordinaire of Globalfest and of numerous ethical fashion shows and/or as this year’s Changemaker award winner, but did you know she also has a side hustle as a closet editor? Come learn from the best.

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.

We host monthly meetings on the first Monday evening of each month. At these meetings, you can expect to connect with other folks who want to curate a more ethically-minded closet, learn something about the current state of the fashion industry, and find out what you can do to be more mindful in how you interact with it.
