Alicia Silverstone is an advocate for animals who fills her closet with pieces that are good for animals and the planet. Take a page from her book by building your winter wardrobe with the same values in mind. These flattering, fashionable sweater selections are ones that Alicia would love—they’re all wool-free, and many are made with recycled materials. Sheep are gentle individuals who are treated like machines in the wool industry. When you buy vegan clothing, you’re helping to build a better future for sheep and all animals.
