Spotlight on Zarif - One Wear Freedom

Spotlight on Zarif

Much of the One Wear Freedom collection comes from the generous donations of family and friends, including vintage, pre-loved, special occasion garments that have served their purpose for the original owner but have a lot more life in them. When we do add something new to our collections, we work closely with the artisans to ensure the pieces have been ethically sourced, with sustainability in mind throughout the production process.

Eco-Friendly Accessories

As you will probably be aware of by now, here at One Wear Freedom we are all about helping the planet by becoming sustainable, as part of the Fashion Rental Revolution.  However, what about when it comes to accessories? It isn’t possible for health reasons to rent earrings for example.  It is possible however, to seek and source our accessories from eco-friendly artisans.

Power Dressing In 2020 - One Wear Freedom

Power Dressing In 2020

When we think of the term power dressing, our first thoughts are probably of women wearing giant shoulder pads, and masculine style suit jackets. The term Power Dressing was coined in the late 1970s/1980's.  It was first used in The Post Standard, a New York City newspaper, in 1979.  It was said to be a style mainly adopted by women and one which was created to give a female’s an air of ability, confidence and capability.

Think Pink For Breast Cancer Awareness Month - One Wear Freedom

Think Pink For Breast Cancer Awareness Month

As part of Breast Cancer Awareness month, we’re celebrating all things pink. First of all, it is simply a GREAT colour and secondly, it is associated with so many wonderful things! A pink triangle is one of the symbols of the gay rights movement and the colour’s links with women and femininity has steadily continued since the 1940s – the reason why it is used by all major breast cancer charities!

Delightful Tack October Fashion Market - One Wear Freedom

Delightful Tack October Fashion Market

We all love an independent market don’t we? Seeing small-business owners making their dreams happen, talking to them about their journeys and discovering new products is all part of the joy. The pandemic may have stopped us from physical markets but that doesn’t mean we should miss out!

Clothing Rental Myth Buster - One Wear Freedom

Clothing Rental Myth Buster

As Selfridges + Hurr Collective have recently launched their Project Earth rental collab it seems Twitter + Instagram are all up in arms with so many people focused on “clout/lifestyle/drip chasing” or supposed “lack of hygiene” that it seems all the incredible benefits of renting + becoming more sustainable have been completely missed out!!
