“Learn to sew!” was ushered throughout the [COS](https://www.cosstores.com/en_usd/index.html) Sustainability Panel as a piece of advice to live consciously without risking a $300 splice in your bank account. COS has become a vessel for the circulating economy in fashion. Overcoming climate change is a monumental task, but those instrumental, smaller movements on the individual level evolve into a grand salvaging of materials. COS and The Renewal Workshop are partnering to give clothes that were damaged in the supply chain a revitalized longevity. Three COS locations (Century City, New York, and Washington D.C.) are bringing in 300 pieces reconstructed by The Renewal Workshop with a 30% reduced price.  The COS Sustainability Panel was moderated by Kat Collings, the Editor in Chief of Who What Wear, where she opened up conversation with major names in the sustainability sector (Nicole Bassett, Jenny Ong, and Nopor Staurt). Driving factors for incentivizing change start in realizing that minor tasks can vocalize a broader mindfulness. Some golden tokens of input from the sustainability Mount Rushmore included creating a relationship with your tailor and organizing your closet to uncover those hidden gems you once lost. The tips accompanied with the COS Restore Collection illustrate the brand is not just tossing the ‘sustainability’ term as click bait, COS is actively taking strides in creating thriving practices that preserve our ecosystem. The Top 5 things to learn from the panel 1. **Give yourself a 48 hour ‘cool off’ period** - Stop with the impulse buying! Think about how many times you are actually going to wear the piece. after 48 hours of fashionable meditation see where you Stan on the item. 2. **Organize your closet** - being able to to see where everything is in the closet will help you appreciate your wardrobe more. 3. **Read the care label!** If there’s a line underneath he washing machine icon, that means use the gentle cycle 4. **Learn to sew!** Watch YouTube videos on how to sew on a button or repair a small hole so that you don’t dispose of your clothes unnecessarily. **5.Create a relationship with your tailor**. Instead of throwing a piece away that you no longer wear, take it to your tailor and have them modify it in some way to give the piece a new lease of life
