It's National Secondhand Wardrobe Day
Today (25 August) marks National Secondhand Wardrobe Day.
The annual awareness event invites people to rethink how they shop for clothes to reduce the reliance on ‘fast fashion’.
Instead people are encouraged to explore charity shops, vintage boutiques, resale apps and swap events.
