The project addresses issues of excessive consumption by exploring a conscious approach to utilizing second-hand clothing. Through photography and scanning, I archive my personal collection, including skirts, jackets, shoes, bags, coats, shirts, t-shirts, scarves, aiming to highlight each garment’s unique qualities and convey their significance.

The book has two parts — a catalog of close-up clothing images and an index listing used items. The first part explores visual rhymes and contrasts between clothing elements, allowing viewers to create garments combinations. This mirrors the process of choosing and combining clothes. The index lists all clothing items, exploring characteristics like origin, where found, brand name, label image, size, and material.
