OUR CLOTHING DISPOSAL HABITS, THROUGHOUT THE YEARS
The following topics below discuss the timeline of clothing disposal: from how disposal was done in the past and how people used to handle their clothing, the current situation and the implications of fast fashion, to the possible ways in which we can solve the problem of clothing disposal.
OUR PURPOSE
Fast fashion continues to grow, but so does its environmental impact. Every year, millions of garments end up in landfills across the world. Most Filipino consumers remain unaware their clothing disposal habits contribute to this. Gen Z and Millennial Filipinos often follow fast-changing fashion trends impulsively. They buy clothes quickly and discard them just as quickly afterwards. Instead of donating, upcycling, or exploring sustainable second-hand options, many throw clothes away. These discarded clothes add to overflowing landfills and cause long-term ecological harm.
This project aims to inform and influence Filipino consumers to become more mindful about what they do with their clothes after use. By encouraging small, sustainable actions, we hope to inspire a shift toward more responsible fashion choices and disposal habits.
