It’s amazing how many of the clothes we used to end up in landfills but this trend is changing sine people are getting educated into how valuable our old cast-off can be. The aim is to change the way we shop so that we use only what we need. Recycling clothes is just as important as recycling plastics and aluminum as so many of those old clothes can be refurbished and serve someone in need of them.

To keep up with trends we do not wear a particular style if it goes out of fashion even though the garment is perfectly alright! This is fueled by media frenzy and huge multi-nationals that operate the fashion industry to make profits. However, if we channel this trend of quick changes in fashion, it can actually be used to benefit those in need. Sparking this trend of wardrobe recycling are celebrities, politicians, and other prominent people such as Kate the Duchess of Cambridge, Michelle Obama, Kim Kardashian, Miranda Kerr, etc.

Kate Moss and Sienna Miller were seen in their favorite winter warmers for the third year in a row. Fearne Cotton has been reusing her faithful pair of apple green jeans for three seasons now and Miranda Kerr seems never to get tired of her monochrome maxi dress too.

There’s also Olivia Wilde who loves her polka-dotted maxi dress and fringed bag. And not to forget the ambassadors of wardrobe recycling The Duchess of Cambridge has shown a penchant for recycling her clothes on more than one occasion while Mrs. Obama who wore an old Michael Kors dress at her husband’s electoral victory moment last week.

While they all have the budget to buy something new for every appearance they make, these stars are choosing to make a statement, and if they’re willing to wear the same clothes time and again then what’s stopping the rest of us? It just requires a little skill to recycle your looks using the same items of clothing. Take the inspiration of The Duchess; she’s an expert on the subject.

The Duchess wore the same DVF coat to the Remembrance Day Ceremonies two years in a row with just subtle changes and the Roksanda Ilincic dress which she wore to the UK’s Creative Industries Reception and also during her first royal tour of America.
