Have you ever wondered, "How can I inherently do good while looking good?" Wear No Evil has the answer, and is the timely handbook for navigating both fashion and ethics. It is the style guide with sustainability built in that we've all been waiting for. As a consumer, you regain your power with every purchase to support the causes and conditions you already advocate in other areas of your life (such as local or organic food), while upholding your sense of self through the stylish pieces you use to create your wardrobe.

Featuring the Integrity Index (a simplified way of identifying the ethics behind any piece of fashion) and an easy to use rating system, you'll learn to shop anywhere while building your personal style and supporting your values- all without sacrifice. Fashion is the last frontier in the shift towards conscious living. Wear No Evil provides a roadmap founded in research and experience, coupled with real life style and everyday inspiration.

Part 1 presents the hard-hitting facts on why the fashion industry and our shopping habits need a reboot.
Part 2 moves you into a closet-cleansing exercise to assess your current wardrobe for eco-friendliness and how to shop green.
Part 3 showcases eco-fashion makeovers and a directory of natural beauty recommendations for face, body, hair, nails, and makeup.

Style and sustainability are not mutually exclusive. They can live in harmony. It's time to restart the conversation around fashion -- how it is produced, consumed, and discarded -- to fit with the world we live in today. Pretty simple, right? It will be, once you've read this book.

Wear No Evil gives new meaning -- and the best answers -- to an age-old question: "What should I wear today?"

Editorial Reviews

Review

“The book holds a wealth of information that's useful both environmentally and personally, and Eagan's plea for a “reboot” of how people shop and clothe themselves is a timely entreaty for change.”
–Publishers' Weekly

The ultimate, all-in-one style guide with ethics built in that we've all been waiting for."
–Sophia Bush

"Rare is the book that speaks to your values while also providing a framework for realizing them in day to day actions. Wear No Evil does both in inspiring fashion. A must read for all who wear clothes."
—Ben Goldhirsh, Co-Founder GOOD Magazine

“The more we uncover what lies behind the fashion industry and the clothes we wear, the more we realize the power we have, as fashion lovers, to change it for good. Wear No Evil is a great guide on how to transform the fashion industry, one wardrobe at a time".”
—Livia Firth, founder of Eco

"I love this book! Finally an approachable, practical, DO-ABLE how-to on going green with your wardrobe without sacrificing an iota of style!"
—Alysia Reiner, Actress (Orange is the New Black)

Wear No Evil - A MUST HAVE for every fashionista

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 7, 2015

Verified Purchase

I've found this book to be a wealth of knowledge. If you're like me and would love to make the best choices on what brands to shop that are eco-friendly, this is the book for you. The author does a wonderful job at laying out custom grids for each clothing type.

For example, looking for Yoga & Studio clothing, Outdoor Layers, Sneakers or Outerwear? Turn to page 114 and you will find: 1) Wear to Shop 2) Integrity Rating 3) Diamond Level 4) Price

This was so handy for me because I like to be cost conscious but I also like my clothing to last. It drives me crazy when I buy something and it falls apart after 2 washings. By looking at the price grids on the right you get an idea if they are using quality fabrics and if their clothing is made to last.

Also, another favorite part of mine starts on page 160 and gives a great guide for eco-friendly beauty products. I don't know about you, but parabens seriously freak me out. I try to avoid this word like the plague when it comes to shopping for lotions and sunscreens. You're probably already aware, but parabens have been strongly linked to cancer. I would much rather go paraben free and use Greta's product guide before I try a new brand vs reading all the teeny tiny print on labels. Hoping that word does not appear.

Overall, I'm extremely grateful that someone took the time to write this book. It has helped me avoid many pitfalls in the apparel industry when it comes to keeping my wardrobe fashion forward but still eco-conscious. Wear No Evil should be on every fashionista's bookshelf.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 13, 2017

Verified Purchase

This book is a nice introduction to, as the author puts it, wearing no evil. It's perhaps the first book you should read when the world of sustainable fashion is new to you and seems incredibly overwhelming and undoable. However, true humanitarians will want to do further research upon its completion. The book fails to mention the downsides of Peace Silk, provide modern vegan alternatives to leather that are also eco-friendly (Matt & Natt are a fantastic--and popular, thanks to Nordstrom--brand that has been doing this for about a decade, yet was not mentioned in this book among many other brands that were proudly advertised...strange), among other omitted, yet important points. I was also a tad irked by the author's constant mentioning of designer brand items that have lead the way in unsustainable production of clothing as though they should be celebrated based on the fact that "they have lasted years, thus were a good purchase." Uhh...okay, so I suppose we're going to ignore the earlier chapters that taught us that the very same brands are making their garments by exploiting people in third world countries to increase their profit margins? All in all, this book is an okay start, but your eco-journey will require further reading...as well as a discerning eye for the author's occasional bs.

"Wear No Evil" changed the way I shop for my wardrobe forever! Now I have style with an eco flair!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 18, 2014

Verified Purchase

Finally! At last! I found a super informative and snappy read (handbook) on eco fashion and style; that I now always carry in my handbag (you never know when you are going to pop into a boutique!).

I am always striving to do a better job of taking care of our planet! (You know, the kind of person who is always recycling – even my post-it-notes! Ha!) I have been scouring the bookstores for years in search of information to help me become a better eco-fashion shopper.

Well, what a relief it was to find the book “Wear No Evil” so I now know what to buy for my wardrobe (not to mention all the great ideas re: beauty products!); I can look great and also soothe my eco conscience! (I even gave a copy to my partner so he can look great and feel good about his wardrobe, too!)

Thank you Greta Eagan for being educated, experienced and skilled enough to write such an important book!

Avid Reader

Somewhat vegan-friendly, but could be more so.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 30, 2014

Verified Purchase

I'm vegan, so I had hoped that this book would help me find eco-wear free of animal products. It did that, a bit, and that's understandable given the present state of textile and clothing production industries. It's tough to find clothes that consider all the welfare concerns of animals, workers and the environment at the same time. Sometimes you can do great on one concern, and fall flat on another. I hope this book can increase awareness of the issues to change buying habits. Right now, my strategy is to buy very few clothes, and wear them into the ground. I'm also considering taking up sewing and buying USA-produced natural, organically grown fabrics. Shoes are more of a challenge, but I wear shoes made by Apropos as much as possible.

Fun to Read How-to: Healthy Lifestyle Can Include Sustainable Fashion

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 3, 2014

Verified Purchase

Wear No Evil, in my opinion, is a must-have for anyone who wants to choose a healthy-lifestyle.
This book is fun to read, easy to navigate, full of information with interesting sidebars of examples and a valuable and easy toolbox for rating and choosing our clothing using Greta’s Integrity Index. The book could end right there, but we are treated to sound advice about creating our wardrobes including tips on how to clutter-clear and organize our closets and ideas about storing and rotating our clothes. And, finally, detailed appendices with charts on eco-clothing brands, including healthy cosmetics. It’s a treasure trove of important information and helpful tips.
I chose this rating because Wear No Evil provides incredibly detailed and in-depth information about the production, consumption and choices we have as style-loving and conscious consumers. There is no other book like this available! Thank you, Greta Eagan for your amazing contribution!

I would like highlight that the 2013 Walmart linked Tazreen Fashion incident happened in Dhaka, Bangladesh not in India. ( page 20)

When reading a book, I would expect clear and valid facts.
Not interested to continue further…

Aunque está en inglés, si controlas un poco y te interesa adentrarte en el mundo de la moda sostenible, este libro te será de mucha ayuda. Es muy práctico e interesante y narrado de forma sencilla por lo que es fácil de entender.
Primero te da claves sobre cómo escoger qué prendas según lo buenas que sean y luego ideas para construir tu armario.
Creo que no está traducido al español, pero no es problema.

A good book, but do fact check.

Reviewed in Japan 🇯🇵 on February 4, 2017

Verified Purchase

I purchased this book because conscious fashion is a topic very dear to me.
In complete honesty I am a bit disappointed. I found the Integrity Index part helpful, but the rest is not very useful if you already have a very strong sense of style. I would recommend this book to a person who is moving their first steps in the reign of fashion as a whole, not only ethical.
My main complain is on the parts dealing with cosmetics. The author, I am sure in good faith, did not even bother to check scientific publications dealing with the molecules she mentions, and some of her statements are a bit too categorical.
This problem permeates also other parts of the book, but it was mostly obvious there. I therefore recommend the reader checks every statement that seems too strong.
