Modest dressing is nothing new, but the phrase has become more prominent in mainstream fashion in the last few years, and as such, there are lots more options for those who favour covering up. Here, we’ve curated the more sustainable brands whose collections include clothes for modest dressing—from long dresses to co-ords, tights, headscarves, and more.

What is modest dressing?

The definition of modest dressing isn’t clear cut, but ultimately it’s about wearing clothes that cover much of the body and are often loose-fitting. Modest dressing is a celebration of cultural identity, gender expression, and religion, too. And while it’s often associated with faith, modest dressing can be adopted by anyone, no matter their beliefs—it’s simply about wearing what feels right for you and brings the most joy when you’re deciding what to wear in the morning. As such, it’s a great example of dressing according to your unique values, which we love to see.

Which brands are making clothes for sustainable modest dressing?

A quick Google for modest dressing brings up top results from “We Avoid”-rated fast fashion brands Temu and SHEIN. But there is good news—plenty of more sustainable brands out there are making clothes that can be incorporated into modest wardrobes. From high fashion leaders like Stella McCartney (“Good”), to more affordable makers such as Kotn and Omnes (both “Good”), and hijab specialist Silq Rose (“It’s a Start”). Think maxi dresses, long-sleeved tops, tights, scarves that double as headscarves, and flowing trousers. Let’s get into it.

Government consulting on sustainable investment labelling

Government consulting on sustainable investment labelling

The Australian Government is starting consultation on sustainable investment product labelling, which is designed to give investors more confidence to put more capital to work in sustainable products.

The federal government said the release of this paper is a key step in implementing its Sustainable Finance Roadmap — designed to help mobilise the capital required for Australia to become a renewable energy superpower, modernising the financial markets and maximising the economic opportunities from net zero.

This consultation paper seeks views from investors, companies and the broader community on a framework for sustainable investment product labels.

These labels are designed to help investors and consumers identify, compare and make informed decisions about sustainable investment products to understand what ‘sustainable’, ‘green’ or similar words mean when they’re applied to financial products.

The government said a more robust and clear product-labelling framework will help investors and consumers invest in sustainable products with confidence and help tackle greenwashing.

This phase of consultation will run from 18 July to 29 August and help the government refine its design principles for the framework.

The consultation paper is available on the Treasury consultation hub.
