Are your old dresses suddenly looking too worn out or even too tacky? If you were heading for the trash can, hold it a moment and retrace your steps towards the Preloved store instead. And if you think that it is only plastic or paper that can be recycled - think again for the age of recycled fashion is here with the Preloved stores. The fashionable clothes that you see hanging gracefully on the garment rails - believe it or not - they are actually recycled. Yes! they actually make use of the clothes that you have outgrown or outworn to create a beautiful and chic collection. This year alone the company has recycled 60,000 woolen sweaters, 12,000 t-shirts, 5000 dress shirts and 6,000 trench coats. The store, however, has not kept itself restricted to recycled vintage clothing and has aunched a range of biodegradable shopping bags. For your part, spare some thought for recyclable fashion and let Julia Grieve and her team at the Preloved stores come up with some wonderful creations from your discarded garments.
