In this world of fashion, short-lived trends come and go, but the one thing that remains constant is the power of neutrals. Not only do they serve as the foundation of a versatile wardrobe, but when selected thoughtfully, these pieces can also support a more sustainable lifestyle. 

At Reistor, we prioritize creating timeless, eco-friendly essentials like tops, shirts, pants, skirts, and jumpsuits in neutral shades that blend effortlessly into your everyday life.

Our focus on sustainability goes beyond the materials we use – it extends to how we design pieces that are made to last, versatile enough to be styled in multiple ways, and easy to layer and pair with existing items in your closet.

Why Build a Sustainable Wardrobe?

Why Build a Sustainable Wardrobe

Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto, in 1896, made a very important observation - “80% of the time, people wear only 20% of their clothing.” In other words, a huge part of our closet is full of items that we wear only sometimes while a small portion contains pieces that we wear time and again.

As per the Pareto Principle, it is only fair to focus more on filling up our closet with timeless, classic, everyday essentials for regular use, like neutral basics and solids, instead of focusing on trendy fashion-forward pieces that we might wear only occasionally.

Before we delve into the specifics of neutral basics, it's important to understand why building a sustainable wardrobe matters. As an eco-friendly fashion brand that rests upon ethical practices, we only use fabrics like 100% hemp, Tencel™, Bemberg™, and 100% organic cotton – all of which are gentle on the environment and kind to your skin.

When you build a wardrobe with sustainability and practicality in mind, you invest in high-quality fabrics, timeless designs, and classic pieces that last, reducing the need to frequently replace clothing and, therefore, minimizing waste.
