"Think about the clothes you are wearing right now. How long have you had them?
How often do you wear them? Like me, you’re probably wearing favourites that
you always reach for, despite having a wardrobe stuffed with rarely worn
clothes.
But still, you might feel the irresistible urge to buy more. In high-income
countries, overconsumption of clothing contributes to the climate crisis
throughout the accelerating cycle of fashion, from production and distribution
to mountains of barely worn clothing waste. It might be true that the most
sustainable clothes are the ones we already own, but has the industry convinced
you that’s boring?
Caring about what’s inside your wardrobe, while resisting the urge to buy more
clothes, might be more fun than you think. As part of my PhD research into what
our relationships with our clothes might mean for sustainability in fashion,
I’ve been experimenting with these simple and positive ways to reconnect with
clothing"
