The Challenge
In today's consumer-driven society, too many clothes are discarded prematurely, contributing to environmental waste and loss of value. Many people lack easy access to tailoring services, or are unaware of the possibility and benefits of repairing and altering clothes instead of disposing of them
The solution
ThreadConnect is a user-friendly app that builds a community around sustainable clothing care, linking users with local tailors and hobbyists who offer repair and alteration services. This not only provides more job opportunities for professional and amateur tailors but also offers a practical, eco-friendly alternative to discarding garments. The app includes features like tailor profiles, user reviews, pricing guides, and a seamless booking system, making it easier than ever to revive your wardrobe sustainably.
Mission
ThreadConnect aims to revolutionize the approach towards sustainable fashion by seamlessly connecting individuals needing garment repairs with skilled tailors. Our mission is to foster a community that values sustainability, supports local artisans, and extends the life cycle of clothing.
