Don't Throw Away Your Clothes! Avoid White, Yellow Stains With These Deodorants, Antiperspirants

The time a piece of clothing lasts is not only determined by the detergent you use in each wash, the deodorant also has an important role. When your blouse, shirt, or favorite dress begins to show white or yellowish spots, it is a sign that the piece is no longer useful and should be discarded.

Knowing our everyday struggle, Unilever decided to create an awareness movement that brings attention to the 10.5 million tons of clothing that are discarded every year.

The organization partnered with Savers, a global thrift retailer, and created the campaign Savers' I Give a Sh!rt to inform people about the issue of clothing waste. The campaign encourages people to recycle their clothing instead of throwing it out. Many people dispose of clothing because it is stained, in fact, 300 million pieces of clothing are tossed out by millennials over a lifetime due to white marks or yellow stains.

Unilever's Anti-Marks Antiperspirants provide a potential solution for the three-quarters of people who are not donating clothing because it is torn or stained. With Unilever's Anti-Marks Technology, people now can extend the life cycle of their garments with deodorant options that help prevent white marks on dark clothes and the formation of yellow stains on white clothes. The technology is featured across five marquee brands – Degree Men, Degree Women, Dove, Dove Men+Care, and AXE.

To kick- off the campaign, the Stain-Less, Waste-Less Installation was unveiled at The Oculus at Westfield World Trade Center in New York City. The Installation, on display February 6 and 7, features a female mannequin standing twenty-eight feet tall and thirty feet wide in diameter, whose dress is made from repurposed clothing.

Throughout the dress, there are statistics about the issue of clothing waste as well as steps people can take to extend the life of your clothing. The Installation was designed and created by Electric Coffin, a multi-disciplinary studio who uses art and design as filters to engage, excite, and craft inspired experiences.

On-site are collection areas where clothing can be dropped-off and Unilever will be recycling the clothes to a local New York nonprofit organization.
