What happens to your discarded clothing?⁠
⁠
Only 10% are recycled and 8% are reused. Unfortunately the rest of it are either in landfill or incinerated. Many of these discarded clothes are in good condition; being unloved, deemed "out of fashion" and not put to good use. ⁠
⁠
Give your clothes a second lease of life. Re-style them, upcycle them, repair them, swap them! There are many ways to do so 😀⁠

, , Wee ⁠
⁠
Meet Wee, a Singaporean travelling within Europe while she slowfashion in these three months. ⁠

Sharing some snippets of her thoughts and expectations on her slow fashion journey. 😁
⁠
Why slowfashion : ⁠
"Since I moved to Berlin 3 years ago, I’ve weaned off any shopaholic habits as the city generally has a very casual and dress-down culture. I really enjoyed not spending on unnecessary shopping and having a basic wardrobe. I pledged to this campaign to consciously keep track of whether this is really the case and also to motivate myself to do more than the basic of not buying. I’m currently using this to document my journey on instagram so I could, hopefully, make my friends aware as well."⁠
⁠
How to slowfashion : ⁠
"I have already been quite comfortable with shopping less. However, as I explore the upcycling space, I am keen to work more with used fabric and keep them in circular use instead of throwing them away. " ⁠

As fashion changes at a speed of 52 times per year, our clothes consumption are increasing at an unprecedented pace. At the same time, consumers are throwing 36kg of shoes and clothes from their wardrobe this year.
This vicious cycle of chase-buy-throw needs to stop. It is time to make more conscious choices in how we see our clothes, how we purchase (or not) and how we can vote with our wallet to stop environmental destruction and unfair wages in the fashion industry.
If you have yet to join us in our , let's start today.

Not buying anything new in our current world can sometimes be pretty challenging; especially when faced with constant changing fashion trends and low retail prices (it does come at a cost of our environment and also unfair wages though!). However, challenging doesn't mean impossible. It just needs more conscious choices and mindful decisions. ⁠
⁠
In , our four ambassadors will share their motivations, challenges, tips and choices in their slowfashion journeys. Hopefully this can also inspires you to embark on the same journey together. ⁠

Plastic is light, durable and versatile, but they take 400 years to decompose and is posing grave risks to the health of ecosystems both on land and in the oceans. 😔⁠
⁠
We cannot undo the damage but we surely can look into our daily habits to see how we can reduce our plastic intake. ⁠
⁠
In support towards our ethos in sustainability, we are currently looking for ways/tips/products that people can adopt to reduce their plastic consumption. Please DM us and we love to hear from you! ⁠
