Forget doin' it for Insta, and focus on doin' it for the planet – by rewearing, restyling and repeating your fave fashion pieces. Yes, our clothes are Insta-worthy, but we’re not fans of that one-wear mentality. That’s why we’ve challenged our stylist to explore five different ways to upcycle and restyle our affordable black hoodie dress.
Scroll on for the ultimate restyling hacks...
1. The Zero Waste Strappy Dress
Need to up your game for a night out? Go from sleeves to straps in a sec: just pop your arm through the neck of this hoodie dress and pull it down to chest level. Then bring the sleeves over your shoulders and tuck in for faux straps! Voila! You just bagged yourself an extra outfit, with zero waste/cost.
2. The Eco-Friendly Midi Dress
Want something a little longer? We have you covered. Pop your arms through the neckline and pull down to chest level for added length. Wrap the sleeves around the back and tie. Throw on chunky sneaks and you're good to go.
3. The Restyled Asymmetric Dress
Asymmetric necklines are totally trending. Now you can transform your long sleeve dress into this hot RN style super fast (without chopping it up!). Just pull one arm out of the sleeve and tuck it down into the length of the dress. Saving the planet should feel and look good, too.
4. The Upcycled Bandeau Mini
Take this piece from day to night fast by tucking the hood and sleeves into the neckline. Roll up the bottom for a shorter length and pair with ankle boots or chunky boots for evenings out.
5. The Statement Top
Grab your fave sustainable cotton jeans – 'cause this LBD is a dress no more... Wrap the sleeves around your chest and thread them together to secure. Voilà! A strapless top with a statement cape and hood – a true one-off!
