Recycled or Brand New? Does not matter, for what matters is the classy taste of the person wearing a dress.
New or pre-loved, an attire will look great only if, other than being from a reliable clothing brand, it is accompanied by the wearer’s elegant color choice, proper fit and right accessories. Plus a smile on your face!
Kate Middleton looks glamorous in everything she wears as she does in this recycled coat.
“The Duchess of Cambridge looked flawless as usual in Holt, a small country town in Norfolk, England, Friday morning to officially open a charity consignment shop for one of her favorite causes: EACH (East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices). The princess, a renowned re-wearer, wore a familiar slate blue tweed M Missoni coat for the event and paired the piece with navy pointed-toe pumps”

Kate was supporting the charity store all for a good cause – her campaign to raise $1o million for a new hospice facility for EACH, which provides support to children battling life-threatening illnesses, as well as to their families.
There is every reason why non-princesses too should support such re-cycling venues. Donating their unused quality items while also purchasing similar items donated by others.
Recycling reduces wastage of good products. We should not forget that, in this same world as ours, millions of people people do not even get to wear very basic everyday clothes.
