Inspiration
My inspiration was the theme of sustainability in the fashion industry and my own passion for fighting fast fashion.
What it does
FashionForward helps combat fast fashion in three ways:
- It allows you to search the name of a brand and see its GoodOnYou rating, which examines the brand's transparency and efforts to be more eco-friendly.
- It gives you examples of different avenues for you to donate or reuse your clothes.
- It has a list of facts for you to learn and understand more about why fast fashion is so harmful.
How we built it
The website was built using HTML and CSS, with a little bit of JavaScript.
Challenges we ran into
For the donation page, my first thought was giving a huge list of different places where you can donate clothes (like the brand page) and giving you options to filter through them. Due to time and the scale of something like that, I couldn't complete it. There was also the issue of getting the brand filter to work correctly.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Color cohesiveness, functionalities, and completing a project of this scale.
What we learned
Advancing my knowledge in JavaScript, more specifically how to do the "filter list as you type" function.
What's next for FashionForward
Completing all the GoodonYou brand pages and figuring out how to expand the donation page and page it more interactive.
