Eco-Friendly Fabrics To Think About as You Search for Your Sample Wedding Dress

Shopping for a sample wedding dress is a smart way to stay stylish and sustainable—but if you're eco-conscious, there’s another detail to keep in mind: the fabric.
Many traditional textiles have a heavy environmental footprint, but today’s bridal fashion world is filled with gorgeous, planet-friendly options that don't sacrifice elegance or quality.
As you browse sample gowns, here are some eco-friendly fabrics worth looking out for. And, don’t forget to ask our bridal consultants about the various sustainable designers we carry!
Organic Cotton
This isn’t just for everyday basics—organic cotton is soft, breathable, and completely free from harmful pesticides and chemicals. In wedding gowns, it’s often used for romantic, lightweight dresses with a relaxed or boho vibe. It’s also hypoallergenic, making it ideal for sensitive skin.
TENCEL™ (Lyocell)
A modern favorite, TENCEL™ is derived from sustainably harvested wood pulp and produced in a closed-loop system that minimizes waste. The result? A smooth, breathable fabric that drapes beautifully and feels like silk—without the environmental impact.
Peace Silk (Ahimsa Silk)
Love the look and feel of silk but not the traditional process? Peace silk allows the silkworms to emerge naturally from their cocoons before the fibers are harvested, making it a cruelty-free alternative that still delivers that coveted, elegant sheen.
Recycled Polyester
Some bridal designers are embracing recycled materials by transforming discarded plastic bottles into soft, wearable fabric. When used creatively, recycled polyester blends can mimic the structure of satin or crepe—ideal for sample dresses with clean lines and form-fitting designs.
Hemp or Linen Blends
Hemp is a natural, durable fiber that’s highly sustainable. When blended with other fabrics like organic cotton or silk, it creates a breathable, textured material that works well for earthy, rustic gowns.
