Re-owned is a project that explores pre-owned fashion as an alternative to fast fashion. The throw away nature of fast fashion can be linked to the culture of short lived trends, meaning that fashion now becomes outdated quicker than ever before. Pre-owned clothing can offer an array of different styles, it can be an escape from the uniformity of fast fashion trends and a more responsible way to enjoy fashion. During this project, a survey was created to develop an insight into the attitudes of 18 to 25 year olds towards pre-owned fashion and personal style. The responses were presented in a small format book attached to the larger main section and was printed on recycled paper.
