Sustainable Fashion Facts



We're in deeper than you think. In up to our necks one might say. Fashion is everywhere. We are surrounded by it and the advertising that forces us to consume it. We can't help it! What red blooded woman doesn't feel better after buying a new dress or pair of shoes? or two :$

We, as consumers, need to start making more educated, conscious decisions about what we purchase and what we wear. Check out these fashion facts;

- Approximately 94,670,778 pairs of jeans will be sold globally this year.
- In the UK alone, 1.8 million tonnes of clothes and textiles are thrown away every year.
- By December, India's largest polyester manufacturer will be making 1,400 tonnes of polyester per day. Polyester is a synthetic fiber derived from coal, air, water, and petroleum.
- The Carbon Footprint of one woman's tshirt if 5kg over it's lifetime.

There is alot of information out there and I've included some links below...but just one of the good things about Vintage Vixens and Vamps is the promotion of local retailers selling sustainable fashion. Not only are you supporting LOCAL retailers but you should FEEL GOOD with the purchases you've made because you're saving it going to landfill.

What the Butler Saw

Just what did the butler see? Lots of divine clothing that's what.
So come on be naughty...take a peek and indulge your vintage passion.

Marina has been selling vintage for over 15 years, in fact if you've ever visited "Tumbleweed" in Armadale or a market around Perth you've probably met her.
Notoriously slow at adopting "new" technology - like having a phone in her shop, she prefers to devote her time to finding lovely things and .....ironing.
But now she's created a new facebook page.
So please have a sneak peek at "What the Butler Saw" coz it's sad having 0 friends

Frances Noe

I will be selling a collection of mens and womens, vintage and retro, clothing,shoes and accessories. As well as my handmade hair bows that are made from vintage and recycled fabric. They look lovely as part of a vintage outfit and because they're handmade no two are the same. Because they're made from recycled fabrics and attatched to labels made from recycled card they're environmentally friendly as well!

Dapper Zorse

Dapper Zorse sources vintage product from all over the world including Australia, Asia, USA and the UK. Many pieces can be found in perfect sellable condition, but often I customise garments to give them more of a modern silhouette whilst still maintaining the best features of the original garment. My garments range from 1950's through to the 1990's however for some reason I am constantly attracted to the 1980's due to the structured styling of the era; the bright colours,metallics and the flamboyant fabrics!

She Seldom Blushes

Fern from She Seldom Blushes gives us the run down on her boutique in the heart of Fremantle:


Having inherited the bargain-hunting, rummager-gatherer nature of her mother, Fern Vallesi has been fossicking through op-shops, garage sales and Sunday markets looking for the elusive bargain since she was in her early teens.

Since around the same time she has been making jewellery with her preloved finds... And in more recent years she began to wholesale these to boutiques in Perth under the label She Seldom Blushes.

Now She Seldom Blushes is a store in the Atwell Arcade in Fremantle stocking Fern’s jewellery, the jewellery of other local designers and other things she loves... including vintage clothing and accessories and gifts with a retro edge.

For more info check SSB out online on Facebook...
