Sustainable tailoring

[LadyHester]

I saw and loved the Me and Em chocolate pinstripe suit Here
But it’s mostly polyester and Me and Em doesn’t have a brilliant sustainability record as far as I can tell.
can anyone steer me towards some chocolate brown tailoring that’s a bit more planet-friendly?
I know the best answer is to buy secondhand but it’s such a faff with trousers as you really have to try on for the fit.
I’m 5’4”, size 14.
Really hoping for some good recommendations - I’ve drawn a complete blank so far.

You could have a look through these:

Thanks - lots of brands I haven’t come across. Will set aside an hour and dive down the rabbit hole!

I mean, to be frank most decent brands will be selling a brown wool trouser suit over the next couple of seasons - have you looked at Cos, Studio Nicholson, Margaret Howell, Aime London, Lemaire, MaxMara, Our Legacy, Petar Petrov, Adolfo Dominguez, Loulou Studio, Toogood, Toteme, etc? Or you could search for ‘Brown pinstripe’ on Net-a-Porter, or SSense or wherever.

You'd be amazed at how tricky it is to track one down! Cos doesn't have the sustainability credentials and I'm very wary of Italian brands following recent manufacturing revelations. A search on Net didn't bring up anything affordable beyond some Frankie Shop pieces which had all sold out.
