Outfit Library LESS

Like many of you, I (finally!) watched De Prijsknaller about what happens to the clothes we throw away. And like most of you, I was shocked. And sad. And angry.

You can know a lot, read a lot, do a lot, but seeing the footage of what you know only from the theory is completely different story... I can't even imagine seeing it with my own eyes. How heartbreaking this must be. Let alone having to live in the middle of it.

But there are things we can do to fight the fast fashion monster, even though these things are tiny on the global scale. Please read the post of to get some inspiration and follow people and initiatives who are sharing their journey towards more fair and more sustainable clothing industry.

This week on Friday and Saturday you can borrow clothes at our pop-up clothing library Outfit Library LESS at Rozet in Arnhem.

All the beauties in our collection are preowned, no exceptions. Chosen piece by piece with love and attention. Washed, steamed and often fixed. Representing a wide range of sizes (34-54) and all possible styles.

We invite you to borrow your favorite items (beginning with just €5 p.p.) or buy the ones you are going to enjoy and wear at least 40 times. You can also bring your own clothes that need to be repaired: we always try to find a creative solution for every piece.

You can also just come and take a look: see for yourself how many amazing items we've rescued. All of them became unwanted, they have been donated, given and even thrown away.

There is enough clothes produced already to dress 8 (!!!) future generations. So, please, let's use what already exists instead of facilitating more overproduction and overconsumption.

See you this Friday (18.02) between 09:00 and 22:00 and this Saturday (19.02) between 8:30 and 16:30 at on the 5th floor.

Love, Maria
