Sustainable Clothing Tips 

Here are some sustainable clothing tips you can follow with items in your wardrobe:

Wear Long Dresses As Tops And Skirts

If you have a collection of long dresses, then you can easily re-wear your long dresses as tops and skirts. You can wear your long dresses as a top by pairing it with a baggy or jeans. Just tuck in the dress in your jeans, and you have a brand-new top. You can also wear them as skirts by pairing your long dress with a tight top or crop top, while the flowy dress’s bottom acts as a skirt.

Mix And Match To Create A New Outfit

Deep clean your closet and take out all the old clothing items that you don’t wear anymore. You can now mix and match these pieces with other new pieces of clothing to create a brand-new outfit. For example, if you have an old crop top lying around in your closet, pair it with any brand-new pair of pants, and you’ll have a new ensemble. You can enhance the look by accessorising it the way you like it.

Convert Your Old Sarees Into Kurtis And Tops

Another great way to upcycle old clothing items to prevent environmental waste is by converting your old sarees into kurtis and tops. Take an old saree that you don’t wear anymore out of your closet and go to the tailor. Choose a kurti design of your liking and let your tailor use the old saree as the fabric for the new kurti. You can do the same to make new tops. This will ensure you have a new outfit and prevent environmental waste.
