Sustainable fashion in the Canary Islands
If you plan a holiday on this wonderful island, you are lucky! Not only does Tenerife offer breathtaking scenery and dreamy beaches, but it is also a paradise for environmentally conscious fashionistas.
So, you want to enjoy a day of shopping while exploring the charms of Tenerife. In that case, this blog will take you by the hand through some sustainable fashion shops in different corners of the island – get ready to discover stylish clothes that also contribute to a more ethical world!
At Pisaverde, they invite you to discover much more than just shoes: authentic works of art made with passion and dedication await you! The shop is located in the beautiful island capital of Tenerife, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, and is one of the most extravagant examples of island craftsmanship.
From elegant high heels to comfortable slippers, Pisaverde encompasses diverse, unique designs with a sustainable twist. Each pair you find has been made from recycled materials and natural dyes. Plus, when you choose from the different styles, you’ll have the opportunity to feel the unrivalled softness of leather produced and crafted locally from their own banana plants. You will get a pair of shoes and a piece of the region’s rich tradition of craftsmanship.
Fashion space is a unique commercial space based on the concept of a gallery that exhibits outstanding designers every month.
The creator, Lupe Castro, is an entrepreneur and fashion expert who sees this world with a kaleidoscopic approach. Her background includes collaborations with retail giants such as Selfridges, chronicling haute couture from the front rows in Paris and journeys around the world nurturing the creativity of promising emerging designers. At The Fashion Space, fashion becomes art, and Lupe Castro’s vision drives global creativity.
Sycorax creates unique accessories using sustainable materials. Each piece, from backpacks to bags, is handmade in Tenerife using leftover upholstery scraps from their family workshop and other sustainable fabrics.
Heirs to the art of restoration, they have understood recycling and reuse as a way of life and have felt the satisfaction of turning something broken or old into something beautiful and new.
El Grifo Verde, located in La Laguna de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, is a shop selling eco-sustainable bulk cleaning products, natural cosmetics and Zerowaste products.
Their philosophy is clear: to reduce the footprint of plastic on the environment. By choosing bulk products, you support the idea of reusing and refilling your packaging rather than throwing it away – join their mission to reduce single-use plastic packaging and adopt responsible consumption!
