sustainability

Australia is the second highest consumer of textiles per person in the world, with each Australian consuming an average of 27 kilograms of new clothing per year and disposing an average of 23 kilograms of clothing to landfill each year. That’s enough landfill waste to cover Tasmania annually.

Motivated by such alarming statistics at our doorstep, we are on a journey to bring zero-waste fashion choices to the mainstream and make it easy for everyone to shop for the world they want, through contributing to a circular economy. No waste, no landfill. Just recycle, reuse, relove - keeping it circular.

By donating or shopping at Dress for Dignity, not only are you shopping for purpose, you are shopping for impact. When you buy and sell your pre-loved fashion items with us, 100% of funds are donated to Share the Dignity, an Australian women’s charity that works to make a real difference in the lives of those experiencing homelessness, fleeing domestic violence, or doing it tough.

With every Dress for Dignity transaction, it’s another small step towards raising people up and a zero-waste world, and our efforts are taking shape. Come join our journey! United by fashion, we will make the most powerful fashion statement of all.

Keep it circular by donating your pre-loved fashion items to dressfordignity.org.au. Where women support women and kindness is always in fashion. It’s a circle you want to be a part of.
