#TextileQuote of the Week
Textile upcycling and thrift shopping will halve the amount of air pollution resulting from the textile industry.
This year's World Environment Day calls on us to #BeatAirPollution and we believe we can achieve this goal by changing our fashion habits.
We believe if we can do more thrift shopping as well as encourage textile upcycling, it will greatly contribute in reducing the amount of emissions that result from the fashion industry.
