Student entrepreneur tackles plastic waste by launching Take2 sustainable swimwear collection that respects the planet
Take2 has proved an immediate hit with an environmentally aware audience, with a rapidly growing following on Instagram. Customers are attracted by the idea of doing good for the planet as well as appearing stylish on the beach and around the pool. The reversible design means each item purchased is effectively two outfits in one, providing a choice of looks, whilst also helpfully saving limited suitcase space.
Waste plastic constitutes 80 percent of marine debris. Cecelia recognised that there is an urgent need to address this situation, which threatens the safety of marine life, contaminates food for human consumption and contributes to climate change. In the UK, you're never more than 70 miles from the sea, and it made sense to start her campaign to tackle plastic waste by creating an environmentally aware fashion business. Cecelia's in good company, as Stella McCartney launched her latest sustainable collection recently, using the same ECONYL® fabric.
Cecelia says, "We all love fashion, and we can now buy a new outfit at the click of a button, without even leaving our homes. We don't like to wear the same thing twice; instead we wear it once and throw it away. I've also been shocked by news of terrible conditions in unethical clothing factories worldwide. For this reason, I've carefully chosen an ethical manufacturer in the UK for Take2. Sustainable clothing definitely doesn't have to be second hand or shabby. This is the power of the consumer to vote with their money, together we can force change in the fashion industry."
Encouraged by the popularity the first collection, Cecelia is working on her 2022 range. The current Take2 collection is available via the website.
