It’s no secret that the fashion industry has a waste crisis. As we wag our fingers at fashion brands that grapple with their perfectly good overstock in often destructive ways, we as consumers could also afford to take a closer look at the way we grow tired of perfectly good clothes and inadvertently fuel the creation of more - more clothing and more packaging.

Why is there so much fashion waste? What can we do to solve this problem? And what really happens to the clothes we discard, or donate?

With less than 10% of donated clothing actually being circulated through charity shops and 94% of all textile and plastics waste being incinerated and landfilled, perhaps it is time for us to reckon with the privilege that fuels it.

Join us in this conversation to discuss:

• what fashion waste looks like in Singapore
• the role of privilege in fashion waste
• how brands and consumers can be part of the solution

The fashion industry contributes to 10% of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide and we each play a part with or without realising it. But who can really make a difference to change the industry for the better - the people, the private sector, or the government?

Join us as we venture beyond the fashion industry to explore this question with our speakers, who grapple with the same sustainability conundrum in other spaces, and learn how every one of us can be catalysts of change through both our personal choices and our voices.

Through this discussion, we will discover:

• the interconnection between different sectors and their changemaking strategies
• how we can be part of the solution as individuals
• how advocacy can look in Singapore

Our purchase of clothes goes beyond the final product. That is why we need to ask “Who made my clothes?” before any purchase. This question is powerful because it places us in a frame of mind that consciously investigates the truth behind the process.

Join us as local makers come together to answer your questions about how their process of ensuring equitable practices, void of exploitation and overproduction, through decent work ethics on 24 April. This would be delivered in an open format Q&A style, send your questions to us for this session via the Instagram Story highlight.

In the first Southeast Asian focused consumer-facing report, Fashion Revolution SG and Oxford Development Consultancy have come together to publish ‘Fashion Sustainability Report 2021: focus on change & South East Asia)’.

With a focus on the cultural, business and education landscape of the fashion industry in Singapore, we wish to find out if Singaporeans relate to an urgent need for change within the system. Do we care about the complex fashion supply chains that result in low wages, abuse of labour and immense pressure on our environment? Have we fully grasped what it means to be sustainable beyond band-aid solutions and paying lip service?

Join our panellists on the 24th of April as we ask: Do Singaporeans care about sustainable fashion?
