In the fashion industry, the term “second quality” refers to retail products that fail to meet quality control standards during manufacturing. These products are set aside, even though they might have small defects which the naked eye cannot notice. Second-quality products are becoming more and more common around the world, yet most fast fashion brands destroy any products with the slightest fault in order not to compromise the brands perception of perfection. This in turn produces an insurmountable amount of waste while feeding the culture of excessive consumption.
The WWF Market Fix & Play Store you are in now offers a new solution for these products that would otherwise be discarded. Instead of pursuing a sterile and artificial perfection, this store celebrates one of a kind imperfections and offers a unique space for experience where no two products are alike.
"What exactly is this experience?" The answer to the question is hidden in the two words that give the store its name.
