In a bid to honour many celebrities environmental campaigns, the gift bags to be given to celebrities at this weekend’s Oscar ceremonies will have a strong organic and ethical focus.

Bright new British fashion brand Animal Tails, with its full organic and ethical status, and focus on protecting endangered species has been specially selected for inclusion in the celebrity gift bags.

Animal Tails, was founded by designer and artist Annette D’Oyly over two years ago. The collection is UK Soil Association certified under the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), which assures that the garments are, not only organic, including the dying process and silk screen inks, but also ethically manufactured.

Animal Tails takes a fresh approach to clothes for babies and children, and feature amazing silk screen images, developed from their own original artwork, of endangered species. Each garment has a unique story label telling fun and amazing facts about the endangered animals. Animal Tails gives 1% of its turnover to organisations that seek to protect endangered species.

The collection is available online and stocked in over 50 places across the UK and internationally, including Fenwick and the National Maritime Museum. You can find some of their range of clothes for children and babies here at Mimimyne or visit their site www.animaltails.co.uk for more information! Livia Firth, wife of Colin Firth, who writes about ethical fashion, has also blogged about Animal Tails on Vogue.com – you can read her article about ethical fashion in the Oscars goody bags here.
