The fast fashion industry has come under fire as the cause for clothing being discarded to landfills, and the resulting environmental crisis. But is it the only culprit? No, it is not. There are other little-discussed factors that contribute to the staggering 10] million tons of clothing thrown away each year in the US. In A Conscientious Guide To Wardrobe Care, fashion professional Sheryll Fraze explores this range of factors. She reveals the truth behind clothing returns and the explosive impact of social media and fashion influencers on our disposable clothing mindset. The book shows how to limit impulse buying, keep closets streamlined, gives practical mending tips, and provides sustainable options for transitioning garments no longer wanted. It then offers its Wardrobe Care Guide (which can be cut out for easy reference) to keep clothing protected from damages that lead them to the trash bin.
