Beyond Greenwashing: EgNog’s Authentic Sustainable Fashion
The fashion industry is rife with greenwashing – empty eco-claims designed more for marketing than real impact. EgNog explicitly positions itself against such practice. Greenwashing typically involves bold “eco-friendly” labels without substance, or “token” sustainability gestures to mislead consumers. By contrast, EgNog emphasizes transparent, measurable actions:
Real Organic Raw Material: EgNog names its sustainable materials openly – there is nothing vague about “natural” or “eco” fabrics. Their outfits are made of “Orange Peel, Banana, Corn, Rose, Soya” fibres, making it clear what their intention with sustainable fashion is.
Reduced Waste: The brand’s core method is upcycling food waste (fruit peels, stems) into textiles. This tackles real environmental problems (biodegradable waste, landfill methane). Such circular use of byproducts is a meaningful eco-step, not just a small “green” trim.
Honest Pricing and Sourcing: EgNog avoids deceptive claims. Customers see that prices (e.g.₹2,200 for a shirt) reflect quality craftsmanship, not hidden costs. Materials and buttons are explicitly plant-derived with buttons made from coconut shells, and production happens in India with fair practices.
By committing to genuine impact over marketing spin, EgNog helps restore consumer trust. As one sustainability guide notes, greenwashing undermines truly eco-conscious brands. EgNog’s approach – combining clear storytelling with real innovation – aims to set a higher standard for Indian sustainable fashion
