A new boutique is set to open in Bendigo, offering a unique selection of pre-loved high-end women’s fashion. The boutique, “Learn 2 Love Again,” will be located in the historic Beehive Building on Pall Mall, just in time for the Spring Racing Carnival. This new establishment aims to provide a curated collection of premium garments from renowned labels such as Bec and Bridge, Elle Zeitoune, Shona Joy, Trenery, Victoria and Woods, and Leona Edmiston.
The driving force behind this initiative is the proprietor and milliner, Angie Jackman, who is passionate about promoting sustainability in the fashion industry. Recognizing the detrimental environmental impact of fast fashion, Angie emphasizes the importance of shifting towards preloved clothing to reduce waste and support ethical practices. In addition to clothing, the boutique will feature a range of accessories, millinery, handbags, and locally handmade items, steering clear of fast fashion and mass-produced goods due to their inferior quality and lack of resale value.
Customers will have the opportunity to not only purchase exquisite pre-loved fashion pieces but also consign their own clothing items that are currently gathering dust in their wardrobes. This consignment option aligns with the boutique’s ethos of promoting a circular fashion economy and encouraging a more conscious approach to consumption. By offering high-quality items at competitive prices, Learn 2 Love Again aims to provide a sustainable and affordable shopping experience, saving customers the hassle of scouring through thrift stores for hidden gems.
The grand opening of Learn 2 Love Again is scheduled for Saturday, October 19, starting at 11 am at the Beehive Building. This event promises a delightful shopping experience for fashion enthusiasts looking to explore a diverse range of pre-loved treasures. For those interested in learning more about the boutique and its offerings, Angie Jackman’s contact details can be found on the official Learn 2 Love Again Bendigo Facebook page.
In a world where the fashion industry is increasingly scrutinized for its environmental footprint and labor practices, initiatives like Learn 2 Love Again play a crucial role in promoting sustainability and responsible consumer behavior. By embracing pre-loved fashion, individuals can not only express their unique style but also contribute to a more eco-friendly and ethical fashion landscape. This innovative concept is not just about shopping; it’s a statement—a statement that fashion can be both stylish and sustainable, one pre-loved piece at a time.
