A few more stats about sequins from Oxfam:
- 7 million sequined items of clothing and accessories will end up in landfill, as 5 % of consumers surveyed admit they throw out their sequins once they’re finished with them.
- Party-goers wear outfits five times or less before casting them aside.
- This year’s festive season will see British women purchase 33 million sequined garments and accessories at a cost of £415 million.
- Most sequins are plastic and don’t biodegrade – meaning they will languish in landfill for years to come.
