Q. Would you wear second hand swimwear?⁠ ⁠ Every week, the UK sends 11 million items of clothing to landfill.⁠ 👀⁠ ⁠ The fast fashion cycle is a huge contributor to climate change, which disproportionately affects some of the poorest people in the world. We're working with @OxfamGB to help break it. They’re running a campaign called #SecondHandSeptember, encouraging the UK to say no to new clothes for 30 days, and embrace the power of second hand fashion.⁠ ⁠ We have donated a handful of samples & second hand @batoko swimsuits to @OxfamGB, which will be popping up on their online shop this month.⁠ ⁠ We’d also love to know what some of your favourite second hand shopping tips are? How do you find things that fit in with your style, or up-cycle something to give it a whole new lease of life?⁠ And would you or do you, wear second hand swimwear?⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ –⁠ #slowfashion #secondhand #capsulewardrobe #chooseresused #slowdownfastfashion #sustainablefashion #climateaction #secondlife #choosesustainable #batoko #lowimpactmovement
