Textiles play a vital role in everyday life of human. Synthetic chemicals used from raw material to finished product throughout the supply chain are very large in number. Most of them are carcinogenic, non renewable and non biodegradable thus hazardous to health and environment. Therefore there is an urgent need to create awareness towards sustainable fashion by using eco friendly materials at various stages of apparel production. In present investigation apparels were constructed using sustainable fabrics such as organic cotton, linen and silk. These textile materials were dyed by sustainable dyeing procedure using natural dyes. Tagetes erecta (marigold flowers) obtained from temple wastes were used to dye the fabrics using natural mordants punicagranatum (pomegranate rind) and Emblica officinalis (amla). The results of study shows that Tagetes erecta dyed fabric using punicagranatum and Emblica officinalis mordants give yellowish shade with good fastness properties. Further apparels were constructed from these dyed fabrics to create sustainable or eco fashion.
