Considered "sustainable" fashion, buying and selling second-hand increases the lifecycle of a garment. Because the fast fashion industry produces mass quantities at affordable prices and trends are constantly evolving, clothes are always in demand. To make these clothes, package them, and then deliver them to either stores or your front doorstep takes a toll. The second largest industrial polluter, the fast fashion industry produces 10% of global pollution. Because of fast trends, the lifecycle of the average garment is short-- usually ending up in a landfill-- and thus a reason for the 1.2 billion tons of carbon emissions the industry is responsible for each year. Now that technology has made it so easy for us to buy and sell (quality) second-hand items, thrift shopping gives us an opportunity to change those numbers.
