LOS ANGELES — Seniors from Belmont Village Senior Living Calabasas and other senior living sites found a renewed sense of purpose sewing, designing and upcycling donated clothes from a community clothing swap.
More than 40 seniors took to the 2023 Belmont Blooms Fashion Show runway to show off their “new” looks, hoping to inspire others to choose sustainable fashion.
In 2018, more than 11 million tons of textiles went to U.S. landfills, according to the EPA.
