Crowd Factory’s Alexander Mouldovan calls second chance fashion a “groundbreaking online endeavor. We wanted to bring together new artists and designers as well as give consumers a direct line for input and feedback. It was the second chance® apparel team and their passion that made us decide to get involved in this project.”
