Adult Daycare Director Aka The Bartender shirt

Product Description

At uni she stole Adult Daycare Director Aka The Bartender shirt my heart; at the end of uni, I stole her jumper. It was worn-through at the elbows and frayed at the cuffs, but I loved its raggediness. Mostly I loved that it was something of her to hang on to and wrap up in after we had unravelled. I wore it for years, but I can’t find it now. Did it finally disintegrate? Devoured by moths perhaps? Or, better, did someone else steal it from me? Sometimes a piece of clothing belonging to an ex-lover is too painful to throw away. That is not the reason why my ex-girlfriend’s yoga trousers retain prized position in my bottom drawer. Mistakenly overlooked in the post-relationship belongings transfer, they have been repurposed into a workhorse pair of long johns – now they’re a toasty treat in bed on colder winter nights. Any association with my ex has long since perished … much like the gusset stitching. Finding a decent denim jacket is close to impossible, and this one is the platonic ideal – a great fit, fantastic fades and rips that have occurred naturally. My ex and I split up 11 years ago, and it simply never occurred to me to give it back.

Instead of throwing Adult Daycare Director Aka The Bartender shirt stained, ripped and misshapen clothing in the bin, Britons are being asked to stick the dregs of their wardrobe in the post in a trial aimed at tackling the “staggering” quantity of textiles sent to landfill or incinerated each year. A third of consumers do not know what to do with tops, dresses and trousers that can no longer be worn, figures show, with a similar number admitting to putting such items in their household waste bin. Now unwearable clothes from any label can be returned in a prepaid postal donation bag left with a courier as part of the experimental tie-up between Marks & Spencer and Oxfam, which runs alongside its existing scheme for wearable items. Katharine Beacham, M&S’s head of materials, sustainability and packaging, said the scheme made it possible for someone to clear out all their unloved clothing in one go. “Whether it is wearable or unwearable, we want it all,” she said.
