ethics & sustainability

renew, reuse, recycle

We believe in a more sustainable future of fashion. We want to re-define the way we consume fashion and minimise the industry’s carbon footprint.
We recycle and upcycle preloved clothing and fashion items donated to us, breathing a new life into every piece of garment.
All of our preloved items are de-labelled, as we believe branding is one of the main factors that fuel the growth of fast fashion. Stripping down to the core, it’s all about style without any influences of marketing tactics or stigmas.

data-driven inventory management

In the world of fast fashion, our consumers face the paradox of choice, the constant desire to keep up with trends, and challenges of adopting a less wasteful lifestyle.
The Impact Stylist looks to bring solutions to solve people’s problems. We use data at the centre of our inventory management - understanding our customers’ demands and scaling our inventory with confidence. We are able to avoid overstocking, produce less waste, and maintain high customer satisfaction.

responsible products

If you choose to receive brand new items, rest assure we will only send items from brands that are:
- ethically operating across their supply chains
- using sustainable materials that require fewer chemicals and less water
- giving back to charities and life-changing organisations.
If you are interested in becoming a partner brand of ours, we would love to hear from you!

Global

one billion - half of the world’s children experience violence
every year

1 in 3 of women worldwide have experienced either physical and/or sexual violence
in their lifetime

large disparity in the shares of
male and female victims of homicide committed by intimate partners or other family members

Ending violence against women and children

Women and children are amongst the most vulnerable groups of the world. They face higher risks of being exposed to family violence (domestic violence, child abuse, and pet abuse), which has been heightened during the COVID-19 pandemic as victims may find themselves trapped in the home with a violent perpetrator.
We support organisations that strive to protect women and children against violence and ensure they have access to a safer living environment.
