Clothing Store Starts Fashion From Food Scraps

Would you pay more for clothes that are better for the planet?

H&M is addressing the waste problem by creating clothing made from sustainable, eco-friendly materials.

The clothing store's new Conscious Exclusive collection uses fabrics made from pineapple leaves, orange peels, and algae, which are all biodegradable. If those clothes end up in a landfill, they'll break down more quickly.

This new collection hits stores, including their SouthPark and Northlake Mall locations, on April 11th.

It’s full of summer pieces such as maxi dresses, high waist wide leg pants, and cowboy boots, all reported to be of higher quality than most fast fashion. Plus, they're better for Mother Earth.
