Optimized Resource Consumption
摘要
Garments don’t come with an expiry date on their wash care label nor does the brand provide enough information on the garment with the hanging tags, garment labels, or the brand tag. Social media influencers or the trend change gives the confirmed indication that a particular style is now outdated and can’t be worn again which now will be a part of landfill. The surge in fashion waste happens due to mindless purchases mindless consumption and mindless disposal. The accumulation of unused/unworn garments in the wardrobe becomes difficult to manage and adds up to a daily struggle of identifying a decent pair of garments to put on and feel satisfied in the second skin. Fast Fashion has been the time contributor in the short-lived fashion which directly ends in landfill causing climate change and increasing the carbon footprint. Capsule collections and minimalistic fashion lifestyle can play a key role in minimizing and optimizing the use of resources in fashion, making life easier with classic, and staple pieces of garments and ultimately reducing the waste dumpage in landfills.
