What we wear is a powerful reflection of what we stand for. Secondhand September is a chance to align your wardrobe with your values, and take a stand against the inequality woven into the fast fashion industry.
Fast fashion comes at a high cost for people and the planet. It often relies on the underpaid labor of women around the world, contributes to pollution, and generates millions of tons of textile waste each year. By rethinking how we shop, we can help build a future that uplifts workers, protects the environment, and reflects a more fair and sustainable world.
This September, join a growing movement choosing a better way to shop. Secondhand September invites us all to embrace circular fashion, reduce waste, and reclaim what style truly stands for. Dress for the world you want to see.
Oxfam connects conscious consumption to the broader fight for economic justice, climate resilience, and human rights. Through everyday actions—like buying secondhand, supporting small businesses, and valuing the people behind what we wear—we can spark lasting, inclusive change.
