The French way to an eco-conscious, super-stylish wardrobe from Paris-based style coach Aloïs Guinut.
Stylish women everywhere are realizing the environmental damage of fast fashion on the planet and looking for new ways to dress that don't involve cramming the wardrobe with clothes that may never get worn. As Paris-based style-coach Aloïs Guinut explores in this invaulable book, French women have a lot to teach us about how to cherish the planet without sacrificing your style:

- Know what works for you.
- Buy less and buy better.
- Mix vintage items with a few wisely chosen modern pieces.
- Look after what you have and make it last.
- Seek out quality fabrics that don't poison the environment.
