Rethinking Fashion Waste with Amelia Trumble
Manage episode 460182967 series 2791147
Have you ever finished a closet cleanout and found yourself staring at a pile of clothes, completely stumped about what to do with them? In this episode, I'm tackling the often-overlooked but critically important question of what happens to our clothes after we're done with them.
From well-loved basics to those impulse purchases that never quite worked out, the question of how to responsibly dispose of unwanted clothing is actually a global crisis. To help us understand how we can be more responsible with our wardrobe disposal, I've invited Amelia Trumble, co-founder and CEO of Retold Recycling, to share her expertise on textile recycling and sustainable fashion practices.
Here's some of what is covered in this episode:
- Discover why traditional donation methods aren't always the answer for certain clothing items (like intimates, worn-out basics, and damaged pieces) – and learn about a straightforward solution that can help you responsibly dispose of everything from worn-out underwear to old shapewear.
- Get the scoop on what really happens to our discarded clothing, including those items you wouldn't typically donate to a thrift store.
- Learn practical strategies that make responsible fashion choices feel achievable rather than intimidating.
- Embrace the "progress, not perfection" approach to sustainable fashion – because small steps in the right direction are so much better than doing nothing at all.
- Hear about the exciting initiatives we're planning in the Style Circle this year, including our popular Closet Clean Out challenge that helps members transform both their wardrobes and mindsets.
I hope this episode helps you feel empowered to make sustainable choices with your wardrobe without feeling overwhelmed by perfectionism. Here's to making progress together, one closet cleanout at a time!
