Goodbye Closet Bazar: Premiere and help the planet

If you are interested in other forms of consumption and are trying to beat fast fashion; the bazaars that offer vintage and second-hand clothing are your best option. One of them is Goodbye Closet Bazar.

We all like brand new clothes and being fashionable, and yes, your look is very beautiful and instagrammable… But it is important to know that if you put hard on fast fashion; maybe you'll save a few pesos at the time, however, many times they are not durable garments. neither of the best quality nor friendly with the planet. Moreover, if we think about it, neither with our portfolios. Since buying all the time is not a good investment.

Carolina González, creator and organizer of the event, explains that this bazaar has been held for five years. In which 27 editions have been carried out. Each one brings together different projects, totally dedicated to the reuse of garments, and watch out! They also include people who clean their closets and sell their clothes. Obviously, all proposals go through a prior selection process so that those who attend can find cool clothes at a very good price.

sustainable fashion

Another of its objectives has been to create a sustainable fashion community in which sellers and consumers feel comfortable and change their perception towards clothes that have already had a previous life.

Responsible shopping at Goodbye Closet Bazar

Remember, even if you buy second-hand, think carefully if you are really going to use it, because it is a gradual change of habits that will allow you to buy more intelligently and get more out of the clothes you have purchased.

According to Green Peace and an analysis by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation; In a period of 15 years (2000-2015) the production of clothing went from around 50 billion to more than 100 billion. Now more clothes are produced than we need. The worst thing is that now these garments are used 36% less. Only 7 or 10 times, when a garment could be used up to 92 times (or more if you know how to take care of your clothes).

Added to this is the lack of labor rights and the child labor involved. If you are going to go shopping today, I leave you one more piece of information; According to Tiendeo MX, only in CDMX 270 tons of clothing are wasted at the beginning of each school year and according to calculations by the Copenhagen Fashion Congress; this industry wastes 92 million garments a year. Which end up disposed of in open landfills.

Each of our actions has an impact on the environment, buy responsibly. Take a walk through Adiós Clóset Bazar, so you lend a hand to the environment; to the local economy and you give a new life to those garments that just ask for another chance.
