Offspring
Collective
Hey.
We are Offspring Collective, and we are a high-quality, curated, pre-loved boutique stocking all your favourite brands for you to purchase at a fraction of the cost. But...we are so much more than just a second-hand store.
​
We fight modern slavery.
Our boutique is a new and exciting way to support the work of our not-for-profit organisation, Offspring Project, a Geelong founded charity operating in Kolkata, India, working to restore the lives of young women who have survived modern slavery and human trafficking. Offspring is passionate about educating and empowering Australians with the knowledge, tools and recourses to make a real and tangible difference.
​
We are here to turn second-hand into second chances, to welcome you into the fight against modern slavery, to raise awareness, to foster a capable and informed community and to bring Offspring's heart and mission to Geelong.
​
By shopping with us, you're making an impact.
Why?
We have seen women and children bought, sold, traded and stripped of the most basic human rights.
​
We have seen them abused and treated as a commodity, rather than a dignified human being; someone’s daughter (offspring), sister or friend.
​
We restore the lives of young women impacted by modern slavery. Providing them with safe homes, an independent income, vocational training, tailored trauma care, daily education and empowerment.​

Yes, slavery still exists, and, it’s woven into the fabric of the clothes we wear.​ Today, an estimated 50 million people are trapped in modern slavery. The fashion industry plays a significant role in this crisis, especially in garment manufacturing. Additionally, Australians throw away almost 6 tonnes of clothing every 10 minutes.
​
By choosing to shop at recycled boutiques like Offspring Collective, you’re doing more than embracing sustainable fashion, you’re reducing waste and standing up against exploitation.
​
Offspring Collective is a new leaf sprouting from the Offspring tree, bringing the heart of our mission to Geelong: to fight modern slavery and support the healing and empowerment of young women who’ve survived it.​ Every purchase helps change a life.
We think that’s a great reason to shop. Don’t you?
