The Wardrobe Stories Barometer is not a “survey” but a living story-map.
A beautiful participatory campaign: by taking part, you help uncover the hidden lives of garments — the memories they hold, the journeys they have travelled, the care they have received, and the futures they may still have.
Every garment is a small archive of labour, memory, culture, geography, material, trauma, care, repair, and future possibility.
By contributing your wardrobe story, you are not simply answering questions, you are helping to build a richer understanding of circular fashion and supporting a more inclusive and sustainable future for clothing.
Discover, remember, map, and share the stories woven into your wardrobe.
