While you might look amazing in your latest clothing purchase from Temu or Shein, its journey will most likely end in a landfill.
The 7th annual Rags $2 Riches fashion show wants to highlight thrifted clothes, give them a high-end twist and show you can still look fly in second hand apparel. This is a celebration of sustainability, style and the long lasting impacts of buying used clothes.
Stephanie Bedell founded the Rags $2 Riches Fashion show and she is also a wardrobe consultant, specializing in plus size fashion. She joins the show to talk about thrifting and the runway styled garments from Salvation Army Stores that will be featured at the event.
