We all know what it is like to have that dress you love to death, it has been everywhere with you, date night, lunch parties, trips to the markets, cheeky Sunday margarita afternoons, but there comes a time that we have to let it go.. And that day is a sad one. That is why we are introducing Adrift Re-Loved.
At Adrift, we believe in the power of fashion, to make a statement and evoke change. Adrift Re-Loved embodies our commitment to sustainability and our commitment to make a positive impact within the Australian fashion landscape. Adrift Re-Loved is a program where you can make a difference to, to contribute to a change in the textile industry. To be a part of the movement to reshape the future of fashion!
Adrift Re-Loved gives you the option to send your pre-loved Adrift styles back to Adrift HQ, for us then to determine on whether the products can be donated, resold or recycled.
By choosing to send back your pre-loved items, you’re taking part in the solution of the global textile waste crisis. Once you have sent your garments back, we will send you an e-voucher.
Our mission is simple, yet impactful; we want to be a part of the solution and include you to make this possible. We will be carefully inspecting each piece you send in, to ensure they meet our quality control standards, we will then determine whether or not we will sustainably recycle these goods, donate these goods, or if your piece will find its 2nd home!
No matter which option is chosen for your piece, it makes a difference within the industry. Adrift Re-Loved is more than just a program; it is our shared commitment to sustainable fashion.
DID YOU KNOW?
Every 10 minutes, 6,000kg is discarded into Australian Landfills, creating 200,00 tonnes of textiles, ending up in landfill per year.
With every Australian buying almost 56 items of clothing yearly we want to give you the option of recycling, donating and reselling these goods. We want to become a part of the solution, not the problem.
