Our app, Swap Shop is based around Recyling and reusing clothes to help the problem of fast fashion. The problem is that people are buying clothes that they don’t need that are in trend for a small amount of time then are thrown out and go to land fill. Fast fashion can change styles and trends every week. Because they are put in and out of shops so quickly and are sold very cheap they are being made with cheap materials that aren’t sustainable or good for the environment. People will be influenced and pressured to go with the trends that they will buy clothes without even needing them. Over use of textiles means that materials like, nylon, polyester and more are being put into landfill too much. Materials containing plastics take years and years to degrade. Australia is one of the biggest clothing consumers in the world. Each average Australian throws out an average of 23 kilograms of clothing into landfill each year. Even if clothes are organically made, the process will consume lots of water. The fashion industry is one of the biggest consumers of water. Australia does have many practices to save water but it is still being used. Our app is like an Instagram and Ebay for clothes. Our app is also similar to clothing stores where you can rent your clothes. You can post pictures of your clothing and rent them out, sell them or trade them to people near you. You can message clothing renters, sellers and traders to ask them details about a clothing and where to receive the clothing or accessory. You can also update your never ending feed of fashion in your profile and create a profile. You can search for clothes that are being rented, traded or sold, near your community, in a search bar. Our app makes sure clothing lasts for longer by using the same influence other clothing stores have on other people.
