What if abundance meant having less? Less Clothes, Less Stuff, Less Waste. 💡-The textile/ fashion industry however, is designed to manipulate consumers to desire more instead of valuing the garments we have. It’s a US billion dollar money maker. The womenswear industry alone is valued at $621 billion, which is $219 billion more than menswear. But like fast food, ‘fast fashion’ has a negative impact on our planet and our health. 🗣Hey Fashion Industry, its Mother’s Day and we are honoring Mother Earth by saying Fashion Industry we’re not taking your shit any longer! #PositiveObsession #Impacts #LessIsMore #WhatIf #FastFashion #NotWithTheShit #SustainableFashion #Reduce #FashionRevolution#LessWaste #MotherEarth #MothersDay #ClimateCrisis #EarthDay #TextileComposting #KnowledgeIsPower

🗣Did you know that about 49 percent of the world’s clothing is made of polyester and they forecast this percentage to nearly double by 2030, since jerseys and most athletic wear including the new athleisure trend has led to a growing number of consumers interested in stretchier, more resistant garments. But polyester is not a sustainable textile option, as it is made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), the most common type of plastic in the world. It’s practically indestructible. 3 Ways To Up Your Favorite Jerseys: 1- DIY Tote Bags are the easiest non sew projects to add life to your tees. 2- DIY Pillow Covers adds character to any room and bound to be an immediate conversation stater. 3- DIY a new jersey lol split two, create a new one.
