Did you know that the wardrobe you own is the "most sustainable" thing you can wear? Seriously, it is better to wear what you own than throw it out and buy new clothes.
We must recognize fashion is a business. The industry is constantly pushing new trends and styles. But you do not always have to buy into the latest style. In fact, when we choose to wear and care for the clothes we already have, we reduce the demand for new clothing production, which is a significant source of environmental pollution and waste.
By getting creative with styling and maintenance, we can give new life to our existing wardrobe. Instead of throwing away or donating clothes that are no longer "in fashion" or don't fit, consider swapping with friends. After your clothes are worn out or unusable, consider supporting a low impact sustainable brand!
