A Green New Years Resolution For Your Clothing

SYDNEY - EntSun -- It's interesting that the most environmentally conscious generation is also the most wasteful when it comes to discarding clothing.

The average person today buys 60 percent more items of clothing than they did 15 years ago, but keep that clothing for only half as long as they used to. One in three young women consider clothes "old" after wearing them once or twice. One in seven consider it a fashion faux-pas to be photographed in an outfit twice. Simply put, the Instagram generation today crave newness, and are much more likely to embrace churn in their wardrobes.

At the same time younger generations are more interested in sustainable clothing than older consumers. Clothing resale lengthens the clothing item lifecycle while offering the newness these digital consumers desire.

Most people would admit to having clothes in their wardrobe that they never wear. What do they do with all those clothes when it's time to clean out the wardrobe? Give them to a charity shop where only the best items make it onto the racks, and the rest end in landfill? Or do they just throw them out themselves?

There is no such thing as throwing them out. They must go somewhere, right?

Australians alone discard 23 kilograms of clothing per capita every year and this results in six tonnes of textiles and clothing contributed to landfills in Australia every 10 minutes. This is an amount larger than that of international flights and shipping combined.

If the average life of clothing was extended by just three months, it would reduce their carbon and water footprints, as well as waste generation, by five to 10 percent.

Just because we're bored of the clothes in our wardrobe doesn't mean someone else won't wear them.

According to US consignment store group, ThredUp, the resale of second-hand clothing has grown 21 times faster than retail apparel over the past 3 years. This statistic demonstrates that the future of fashion is second-hand clothing.

There is now a Marketplace App which gives users a simple to list and buy option for PreLoved clothing, accessories, and school uniforms.

The ReHomed Clothing App uses pre-populated filters to list products, which means buyers do not get inundated with cluttered search results as they do with most other marketplace searches. It's really simple to use.

The clothing items being listed on ReHomed, whilst second-hand, are more than often used once or twice with many items not even worn, some with tags still attached.

The App is available now for free download and more information can be found at https://www.ReHomedClothing.com/
