As we know, the textile industry is the second one that pollutes the most to the degree that today there are entire islands full of discarded clothing. But on the other hand, it is a fact that we cannot keep our clothes stored if we no longer use them. Donations and second-hand sales that have now become so popular online (click here or here for options) have become incredible options. But what can we do with clothes that are already in bad condition? I asked several friends, designers, etc. and along with what I do, I share several useful options:
Transforma tus prendas / Transform your clothes
No necesitas tener grandes conocimientos en costura. Puedes cortar unos jeans para hacerlos faldas o shorts. Teñir prendas con ligas y colores naturales para hacer un estampado tie dye o darles un nuevo uso a tus mascadas amarrandolas en bolsas o tu blusa como yo lo hice . Si no se te ocurre nada, siempre esta pinterest y videos para ayudarnos.You do not need to have great knowledge of sewing. You can cut some jeans to make them skirts or shorts. Dye garments with natural colors to make a tie-dye print or give your scarves a new use by tying them in bags or your blouse like I did . If you are having a hard time getting creative, Pinterest and YT videos will surely help you.
Trapos para cocina / Kitchen rags
Corta las playeras que ya estén en mal estado en tiras largas y conviértelas en trapos para limpiar tu casa o tu coche.Cut shirts that are already in poor condition into long strips and turn them into rags to clean your house or car.
Toalla para Secar el pelo / A towel to dry your hair
Las playeras de algodón son muy buenas para secar el cabello (aún mejor que la mayoría de las toallas) porque no pesan y no rompen el cabello (especialmente el cabello chino) solo tienes que extender la playera en tu cama pon tu cabello encima y con las mangas amárralo para hacer una especie de turbante.Cotton shirts are very useful for drying hair (even better than most towels) because they are not heavy and do not break hair (especially curly ones) you just have to spread the shirt on your bed put your hair on top and tie the sleeves to create a kind of turban.
Bazares / Second-hand markets
Cada vez hay más bazares que están enfocados al intercambio de prendas. Por ejemplo, puedes cambiar 3 playeras por un pantalón o por accesorios. Puedes encontrar más información en grupos de Facebook del lugar en el que te encuentresThere are more and more bazaars that are focused on the exchange of garments. For example, 3 shirts for a pair of pants or accessories. You can find many of them on Facebook
Upcycling
Afortunadamente la pandemia nos obligó a todos a valorar más los recursos con los que contamos y las marcas de moda no fueron la excepción. Lydia Lavín es un gran ejemplo de esto ya que está transformando prendas previamente adquiridas por sus clientas que ya no están usando para hacer un proceso de upcycling. Esto quiere decir que usan los materiales para crear una nueva prenda. Una forma increíble de crear nuevas cosas sin desperdiciar nada.Fortunately, the pandemic forced us all to value our resources more and fashion brands were no exception. Lydia Lavín is a great example. She is transforming garments previously acquired by her clients that they are no longer wearing to carry out an upcycling process. This means that they use the materials to create a new garment. An amazing way to create new things with the minimum waste.
