The rise of fast fashion has been a defining trend in the fashion industry over the past few decades, with brands churning out new designs at breakneck speed and encouraging consumers to constantly purchase and discard clothing items. While this model offers affordability and accessibility to trendy clothing, it comes with some significant environmental and ethical implications.
If you're trying to stay fashionable in a more sustainable way, check out the Shimokitazawa Used Clothing Market. The event will be held for several days during March, with a wide variety of unique threads available at reasonable prices.
The dates the event will be held are as follows (from 11am until 6pm each day): March 9th, 10th, 20th, 23rd, 24th, 30th, and 31st.
Getting there
The used clothing market takes place at Shimokitazawa Station's East Exit (Station Square). The station is served by the Odakyu Odawara Line and the Keio Inokashira Line.
