Donate all this material to ladies in the churches bring back quilting bees. Then they can make beautiful quilts to raise money around the world. As quilting true real quilting and real quilts are becoming a dying art and that is truly a tragedy. Ignite the sparks lets get quilts around the world.❤❤❤
I've bought deadstock stuff from sneakers to tooling at a huge discount.
CBS? I dont know if I should be happy that I gt to throw out my excess clothes I where at home and elsewhere for events….
I guess these would be converted into rags then…. I guess thats good news for.me.to learn how to saw and make rags then.
Thank goodness there affordable and portable sewing machines in stores.
Thank you for the idea 😊
Yay Fabscrap!
These numbers are shocking. It’s time for designers to step up and STOP this waste.
This was a very interesting and well presented topic. Great job guys!
Sell them materials
It would help if people stopped buying so much clothes. But, there will always be greedy people.
people are starving . over due rents . there is no more fashion
Sell deadstock to people who make blankets, quilts, new fibres, threads etc.
This should be on onus of the company/brand. 1 for creating so much inventory to become waste 2 making items in blends/ fully synthetic making them impossible to recycle 3 adherence to micro trends which has put us in this snowball which has lead even further to the overconsumption of cheap unsustainable clothes.
There is an army of home sewers and fashion students desperate for these fabrics
The rich company makes a lot of waste. They should be taxed 10 times as much. Our future generations will be living next to garbage dumps . At the moment they ship their garbage to others countries!
Ok those "SCRAPS" could be used for quilts, jackest and any number of other things. When i lived in Miami I was given a 75 pound bag of cloth samples and a 50 pound bag of scrap samples. In my off time I sewed every bit of those sample squares into several queen or king quilts tops then used the scrap material to "color" coordinate with the front of the quilt stock and got myself low pile quilt batting. I sold EVERYTHING I had at the county fair in just a few hours. Why cant yall set up something like that for the scrap materials?
lol how are you going to reuse fabrics like this? I think the fashion industry is solely for the rich that devour everything in their path! I can’t stand these companies anymore .
They need to hook with Project Runway! Do an entire season with FabScrap!
Very sad ites to the land fills
And it’s all polyester , can we BAN. Polyester ???????
Good for these ladies, starting up! I hope the clothing designers pay to dispose of their excess fabric to help them out, they are creating the waste!
I love the 50's and 60's clothes 🥰 I have dead stock from the eras. I would love to see this expanded. I sell vintage clothing on Whatnot. I would love to see more. Keep it out of the landfill. I would love to be able to get some more. Not sure how you can do it, but I would love it!
Dana really should consider some nice blazers, every thing is not for work… jeesh
Ilia kvalito ne estas malsupera al tiuj grandaj luksaj varoj. La fortikeco kaj atento al detaloj rivalas kun la originalaj dezajnistsakoj kaj mi ne povas kredi kiom mi ?paris. ?i estas la perfekta akcesora?o por iu ajn moda knabino! Mi certas, ke mi rea?etos iujn aliajn stilojn kaj kolorojn ? #hqdupe por kongrui kun miaj vesta?oj kaj ?uoj!
I keep all my fabric scraps and use them in making foundation garments such as bustle pads, false rumps, corset pads, and even bust pads to give me the historical silhouette. I also use it as stuffing to make the bases for tall 18th century wigs since I can use up every single piece of fabric and not much goes to waste.
Like we can trust a cbs affiliate to “shoot” us straight.

❤ I’m delighted that this is being addressed 🎉
^Sewn!
Why are non profits taking on the burden of corporate problems? These mega rich corporations should be made to recycle their own waste and dead stock but instead it becomes society's problem.
We don't need any more a new fabric schemes we need to reuse the ones that have already been made sitting in warehouses in Pyles 30 ft tall of brand new and used donations!
If these people are trying to make all new things out of the scraps major things could be made from what is already a huge piece of fabric big dress coat and not scraps we must stop the madness
Sure the tiny scraps which are BS go into a bag that dude cannot open
Not just waste but disgusting waste
They throw this in the trash?
What money and greed do. Life doesn't need much. If there was no money and the like, the desire to be above others, everything would be enough for everyone. We will not destroy the land and nature. Just think, they would rather throw everything away, damage nature, than give it to people. There is an excess of everything, and they explain it as a lack, hunger. They lie and harm for their own gain. Second, fashion changes so fast that it's boring. what if there was no fashion? I want quality long-lasting clothes for direct use on the body, not fashion. I don't want fashion or style anymore. Clothes must be comfortable so that a person feels good and according to the season. 😂
Back in the day there were people who would collect the rags/scraps, etc. The "rag trade" was both fashion and rag sellers, used clother sellers, etc. Additionally, there used to be a lot less waste in the stream.
Other than a few pairs of nice leggings and undies, i havent bought a single item of retail clothing in 10 years. I dont even pay full price at the thrift store! Most days, i get compliments on my outfits and chances are i paid 50c- $1 max for any item im wearing other than shoes, which cost me $8 tops. I shop for summer stuff in winter and vice versa. I keep items for many years and have so many quality, natural fiber and vintage items i got this way. I wish more people would adopt this lifestyle! It would save so much waste and everyone would look more authentic and unique.
Hey i have an idea, instead of overpiling landfills, let's stop buying clothes! Buy clothes that fit, try them on in store so you dont increase carbon emissions with returns, and only buy new clothes when the one you like to wear starts pilling/ developed a hole!
What about all the clothes and accessories that don't sell? Seems that shelters and people who are struggling to find good jobs could use some nice clothing. But……..that's no designers problems, is it. Just burn it or send it to landfills.
There is also another "headstock" NO ONE HAS EVER MENTIONED!!!! Vehicles that don't sell. Airplanes that are old or dangerous. There are tons of waste.
could not care any less about pile of overpriced stuff
20 years ago I would tell my friends that I would rather wear my own name on my sleeve, shirt or A$$ before I would make someone else rich by buying their product.
I had jeans with my name on the back tag.
🤦♀️
Wow! You can do so much with that " DEADSTOCK" or left ova materials. So much!! No one should be clothesless or hungry in U.S.A EVEN RESTAURANTS NEED TO BE REQUIRED TO RECYCLE OR DONATE EXCESS FOODS. ❤️🌈❤️
Get on a treadmill dana, you got a body like a panda
A massive amount of clothing made today is absolute crap to start with, even when it's brand new. Poor quality fabric & poorly/cheaply constructed. It doesn't hold up to repeated wearing much less being laundered through a washer & dryer. Target clithing is notorious for this. Looks good on the rack, but is in misshapen shambles after one wash. So it's ready for the trash far too soon. Quality clothing that is made well & of decent fabric lasts so much longer, but is hard to find in today's junk economy.
Maybe the media could stop pushing consumerism and pretend that they are concerned about the colossal waste.
I worked at the Tahoe Goodwill as a clothing sorter. 1/3 of tons of donated clothing is literally garbage!
