Our Story
Wearout's existence started from a Polish lady named Margherita (Maggie for close ones) who grew up in Italy, the capital of fashion, where her utmost passion for fashion and trends was established. Despite her true love for fashion, she always felt like there was a missing ingredient in terms of the fashion industries' core values. While doing her Master's degree, she utilized her design skills to understand how to positively contribute to the fashion industry issues like unused clothes being sent to landfills, as well as supporting the personal needs of consumers. After over a year of design research, involvement with field experts and consumers - the project was born.
The idea of Wearout came into view during a mentally stimulating discussion with her husband about fashion influencers wearing a garment only for marketing purposes. For Maggie, this was a sudden light bulb moment that inspired her to move forward with Wearout’s concept.
Wearout's potential to challenge the fashion industry to reconsider its values was so inspiring, which led to Maggie’s closest friends encouraging and motivating her to take Wearout to the market. And this is why Wearout exists. Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Together, we normalize the idea of renting garments to save our environment.
