Better known for her climate change speeches than her dress sense, Greta Thunberg is often seen in comfortable basics, but not without occasional splashes of colour. Inspired by her unwavering passion to save the environment, we’ve put together some pieces that approximate the 17-year-old wunderkind’s look – with the first rule of thumb being eco-friendly, of course.
