ARE YOU
A FIXER?
IF IT’S BROKE, FIX IT
Remember, “that spot dress”? Everyone and her dog had one. Don’t give up on it! Let’s try and prevent our landfill sites from looking like 101 Dalmatians.
Every second 2,625 kilograms of clothing are either burned or landfilled, enough to fill the Empire State Building one and a half times everyday.
Extending the life of a garment by an extra nine months reduces its environmental impact by 20-30%.
In the UK, the average lifetime for a piece of clothing is estimated as just 2.2 years.
