Score Your Next Affordable Designer Clothes at These Paddington and Red Hill Op Shops

Check out these Paddington and Red Hill op shops and make a positive impact on the environment through circular fashion.



Did you know that every Australian buys an average of 27 kilograms of new clothing each year but discards around 23 kilograms of that to landfill annually? 

Fast fashion greatly contributes to this environmental problem and one way of helping reduce the amount of textile waste that ends up in landfills is to keep them in the loop for as long as possible or what is called circular fashion. Circularity is achieved in two ways: reselling old clothes that are still in good condition and recycling textiles into new fibres to make new clothes or a textile-based product.
