How Swap Fashions Was Born
Every time I cleaned my closet, I would be left with tons of clothes that I had not worn for years or had no intention of wearing. Being an ex-shopaholic, a lawyer and a new mother, either my branded clothes were out of style, or would not fit me, or had been repeated too many times (count 4 times).
It was a dilemma each time to get rid of these clothes as donating/ passing them over did not mean they were actually being utilized; infact, maybe they were being dumped in the landfills. Moreover, it also meant wasting all that money spent on buying them & the worst of all, still ‘not having anything to wear’ for the next occasion.
To break this vicious circle and to help other women with the same, I founded Swap Fashions.
Fast Fashion forms a key part of the toxic system of overproduction and consumption. The fashion industry produces 10% of all humanity’s carbon emissions and is the second-largest consumer of water supply.
Conventional cotton requires enormous quantities of water and pesticides whereas polyester, one of the most popular fabrics, is derived from fossil fuels, contributes to global warming, and when washed, sheds microfibres that add to the increasing levels of plastic in the oceans.
The speed at which garments are produced also means that more and more clothes are disposed of by consumers, creating massive textile waste. 73% of the 53 million tonnes of fibres used to make clothes and textiles are burnt or sent to landfills every single year.
Swap Fashions is an online Thrift Store that empowers women by enabling them to declutter their closets, upgrade their fashion quotient without burning a hole in their pockets, and to do their bit for the environment.
Swap Fashions facilitates preloved clothes selling/swapping and thrifting as alternatives to shopping and gives a second life to unwanted clothes which would otherwise be dumped into the landfills.
