State of Our Wardrobes 2025

What’s really in our closets — and how we’re actually wearing it, backed by real data

 

The untold story between checkout and cleanout



Based on real data from tens of thousands of digital closets and over 10 million tracked items, the report offers the clearest picture yet of what happens between buying and discarding our clothes: the missing middle in fashion’s sustainability conversation.

 
 

What we found might surprise you...

 
25% of our wardrobe sat completely untouched this year
We add on average 59 new pieces to our closet each year
Nearly 75% of our wardrobe was bought in the last three years
 
 

Closing the loop starts in our closets




There’s a lot of talk about how clothes are made and what happens after we’re done with them. But what about the part in between: when they’re actually in our closets?

For years, it’s been a black box. We decided to change that.

This report is the first of its kind, backed by real, aggregated closet and wear data. No estimates, no guesswork — just receipts. We hope it sparks better decisions for individuals and more honest conversations about what we really need at a systemic level.
