Silent Voice is a system for expressing social will with
fashion as its starting point, operated by
sewn, Inc.
A project to think of someone or something ahead through clothing
Silent Voice is a fashion-based initiative that generates support through "choice" rather than donations.
Silent Voice is a proposal by sewn.
Through clothing, we visualize our willingness to care about someone, something, or something ahead."
It is a fashion-based social project.
Like donations and crowdfunding,
It is not a mechanism for collecting money.
Why did you start Silent Voice?
I want to help someone.
Even if you think so, in the form of speaking out or donating,
It can feel somewhat distant.
People who have problems that cannot be put into words well.
People who need help but are in an environment where it is difficult to speak up.
Such "invisible voices" certainly exist today.
Silent Voice is,
It was born to gently shine a light on these unvoiced thoughts.
You don't have to compete to be right.
You don't have to make big claims.
Just through "choice" as an extension of everyday life,
We quietly give shape to our feelings of concern for someone else.
That is the origin of Silent Voice.
-- Representative / Koji Kagimoto
What is Silent Voice?
Buying clothes, submitting thoughts, and voting.
Through these three actions,
We will visualize a quiet willingness to "care about someone."
Buy Clothes
We pick up the clothes as a "choice" that we share Silent Voice's ideology.
Submit your thoughts
Someone you care about, share an event in words.
Vote
Select a voice from the submitted thoughts that you would like to support now.
Through these three actions,
I want to support someone. I care."
The quiet intention itself, "I am going to do this," is given form.
A choice that is an extension of the everyday,
It gently illuminates someone's presence.
This is Silent Voice's vision of a new way to engage.
Silent Voice is creating a new form of support.
From one of the posts.
I realized that someone close to me was suffering from a pain that I couldn't quite put into words."
Even if I couldn't do anything for them directly, I wanted to leave my thoughts here."

When I learned about Silent Voice,
“I learned that there is a choice to care a little more than to do nothing.”

I want to help someone.
But to speak up loudly and,
I feel a little distant from the form of donation.
For example, someone who has a problem that cannot be put into words well.
People who need support but are in an environment where it is difficult to speak up.
Reaching out to the “blind spots” of our time.
Silent Voice is a system to visualize such "Silent Voice" and link it to quiet support.
You don't have to insist on anything.
You don't have to compete to be right.
Just pick and choose your clothes,
Post thoughts and,
Voting.
The action itself as an extension of everyday life,
As "the willingness to care about someone."
It is a mechanism to gently visualize.
Unvoiced thoughts,
Certainly being present.
To tell it quietly.
