The appeal that uses a sustainable-development argument is: "This line of clothing is made from recycled and remanufactured natural fibers, and distributes profits fairly to the producers."

This appeal emphasizes sustainability by highlighting the use of recycled and remanufactured materials in the production process. Additionally, the mention of distributing profits fairly to the producers suggests a commitment to fair trade practices, which support economic development in communities where the clothing is made. This aligns with the principles of sustainable development, which aim to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
