From Vintage Clothing to Sustainable Fashion

Fashion industry is the most polluted in the World. With so much commotion around the environmental impacts of fast fashion and clothing in general, sustainability is fast becoming the loudest name of the game in the fashion industry. If we want to live on a happier and healthier planet, wasting less and recycling more will make a lasting impact on the world. Aside from an increased awareness of sustainability, with change in consumer attitudes towards wearing and utilizing second-hand goods, vintage fashion fits neatly into the wider mood of the audience. The Reformation is one such fashion retailer that is giving a second life to its fabrics that were destined for the landfill.
