Absolutely, thrift shopping is so much more than a trend now. I bought a buttery soft leather jacket from a thrift store last month, and there’s a unique satisfaction that comes with the purchase. You know you’re giving the garment a new lease of life and aiding in reducing waste, all while getting a good deal!
When it comes to the impact on the mainstream fashion industry, even if the scale isn’t massive right now, every bit counts, right? Over time, the ethos behind thrift shopping could urge the fashion industry to slow down and reconsider their practices. Ultimately, it’s consumer demand that will help shape the industry, and it seems like we’re demanding sustainability more and more.
