Adili.com is one of the growing number of stores that are realizing the buying power of Ethical and eco-friendly consumers. But in saying that, purists may want to steer clear. This is because the online boutique features brands that vary in their definitions of ethical. For example, I looked into shoes pictured by Terra Plana, and found out why their company is ethical:

"All Terra Plana women’s footwear is lightweight which is an essential component of eco design – therefore their footwear is less energy consuming & easier to ship around the world"

Now I'm aware that making Lightweight Footwear is one more positive step, but I don't think that qualifies the company as ethical. However, Adili.com still sells brands that are one step closer to sustainability.

One example is the brand Ciel, which uses materials like hemp and silk in creating luxurious fabrics with low wash temperatures. What I like about them is that they create timeless designs that will last every season in their 'future heirloom' range, and can be handed down to the next generation.

The brand has attracted a celebrity following with ecofabulous stars such as Cate Blanchett and Sienna Miller shopping there. The line is available in designer boutiques countrywide.
