UV fashion project by https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g en-us 2020-02-17 16:09:43 UTC 2020-04-02 07:34:14 UTC hello@padlet.com Problem to solve ulrikave https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/446430136 You can buy second hand, use for a long time and you can sell and give away stuff that is still usable. BUT... many clothes (and products) reach a point where they are not ready for recycling but are not fit for reuse either. They need repair or upcycling. But if the owner doesn't want them anymore, he/she probably won't make an effort to fix them - just to be able to give them away. I see this a lot with my own stuff. Do I really find the time to change a zipper in my sons outgrown jacket, just to be able to give it away?]]> 2020-02-17 16:17:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/446430136 Dream:I dream of a chain of small local shops that can repair garment and possibly also other stuff or take it in, repair or redesign and sell. It would also have a line of unique accessories and childrens clothes made out of discarded garments. There should be community building repair and upcycle events to inspire and teach . ulrikave https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/446433009 2020-02-17 16:26:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/446433009 Proposition ulrikave https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/446434930 Create pleasant, local, physical space where people can meet and in an easy and accessible way, both get rid of items they no longer need, get repair service and find new "pre-loved" items. 
The space would contribute to the community with meeting places for e.g sustainability education, workshops on up-cycling and repair etc.
Both repair and second hand shopping are economical alternatives for the users and an important contribution to a more sustainable community.
Ideally the business can help with repair of other products as well.
The line of own design made from old garments or textiles.will contribute to the idea of upcycling. ]]> 2020-02-17 16:31:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/446434930 Circular business archetype ulrikave https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/466367119 This will mostly be a Circular business archetype with elements of platform and community archetypes]]> 2020-03-19 14:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/466367119 Stakeholders ulrikave https://padlet.com/ulrikave/twm80xs5ou5g/wish/466368878 Employees (social, knowledgeable and practical)

  • Repair & Reuse: These are the main activities. To repair clothes for the current owner or given by the current owner for repair and reuse.
  • Remanufacture & repurpose: The store would use old garments to make an own design line, where old items would be remanufacured into similar items - or in some cases made into other types of items (e.g. an old leather coat can become several purses)
  • (Reduce) This would be part of the community building and education. How to form your wardrobe with less items. How to vary the garments you own to form different outfits...
