DeMellier's pleasingly smart tote bag is the fruit of its charitable initiative 7 Women, 7 Causes.

Proving its position as an industry front-runner when it comes to sustainability, Mother of Pearl is making its first foray into the world of renting with Onloan. Together they've created The Full Circle, and it's a partnership that allows customers to both rent garments - prices start from £69 to rent two garments and sizes go up to 16 - and buy them if the road test turns out to be particularly successful. Speaking about this two-step approach to shopping, which they've called 'Try Before You Buy', Onloan's creative director, Natalie Hasseck, says: 'This is super cool because it means we're switching impulse purchase behaviour to something that is more considered and slower.' Amy Powney, Mother of Pearl's creative director, agrees, adding: 'By renting you are able to enjoy items that signify a moment in your life or mood but may not have a place in your forever wardrobe.'

Rotaro, the fashion rental platform, has a long-standing partnership with Ecologi, the tree-planting organisation that works to fund the world's best carbon-offsetting solutions, but this time it's going a step further. For World Earth Day 2021, Rotaro is partnering with them to plant an entire forest. 'We are passionate about reforesting over-harvested farmlands and rewilding the UK. This year has really emphasised how essential thriving local ecosystems and outdoor spaces are and we want to protect that for generations going forward,' said Georgie Hyatt, co-founder of Rotaro.

Available as of World Earth Day, Frame is launching a pocket-sized denim collection, comprising of two pairs of jeans and one jacket, that have been made using the Ellen MacArthur Foundation's Jeans Redesign. What this means is the pieces have been designed with circularity in mind (i.e. the idea of a garment that can be made, broken down and remade into something new in a closed loop system where nothing is wasted) with 100% cotton, post-consumer recycled materials and easy-to-remove raw metal hardware.

Eastpak's new collection for World Earth Day, Resist Waste, takes the brand's made-to-last credentials and pushes them even further by using repurposed, recycled and responsibly-sourced materials.

Aspinal of London has made impressive strides towards a more mindful approach to manufacturing in the build up to World Earth Day 2021. The hero product from its new collection, the limited-edition London Tote, is made from upcycled canvas, responsibly-sourced (and metal-free) leather, and recycled thread, while this sweet keyring celebrates its new charity partner, the South Downs National Trust, with £4.50 from each sold going towards the planting of a local wildflower meadow, within the grounds of Aspinal HQ, to help support the livelihood of local bees and butterflies.

BITE, the luxury sustainable brand from Sweden, prides itself on the fact that 95% of the materials it uses are either organic, recycled or low impact.

To celebrate Earth Month, Rails is partnering with the Surfrider Foundation, which campaigns against fossil fuel extraction in Los Angeles, on a 100% recycled cotton T-shirt, with 25% of proceeds going straight to the organisation.

Last year, Allbirds became the first fashion brand to label all its products with a carbon output. To celebrate Earth Day, it's open-sourcing a version of its Carbon Footprint Calculator - for other brands to use entirely free of charge - to help drive the fashion industry towards transparency and, ultimately, a greener future.

Putting a twist on Choose Love, the refugee charity's name and famous slogan, the organisation has partnered with Earthrise, a climate crisis media company, to launch a new campaign for Earth Day, Choose Earth, to support the indigenous communities of Brazil. Its range of organic cotton tees and totes, stamped with the iconic slogan, will be giving 100% of its profits to the cause.

For World Earth Day, ESSĒN THE LABEL has partnered with another pre-order brand, Linden Cook, to make a pair of leather flats with a difference. Not only can you choose whether or not to add a gold ankle chain, but customers can also share details about their feet (such as width, arch and height) so that the shoe can be customised perfectly. What both brands are choosing to celebrate is that made-to-order and pre-order fashion are some of the most sustainable ways to shop, reducing waste and highlighting the fashion industry's problem with overproduction.

Renting instead of buying is a brilliant way to be more mindful about your clothing consumption. Baukjen has just jumped on the rental bandwagon, allowing customers to borrow its clothes in two-week slots for as little as £15 for a blouse and £25 for a dress. The brand has also partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects, planting one tree for every order placed online today.
