In recent years, there have been a number of high-profile cases in which renowned persons have been called into question for being seen wearing previously worn clothing. Instead of spending their money on fresh new luxury outfits every week, these celebs aren't scared to recycle their favorite garments and wear them more than once.
The message of sustainability and waste reduction that it transmits in the fashion industry is quite important, and it is one of the reasons why this trend is both welcoming and approachable.
