Recycle is the THIRD of the three Rs for a reason. Fast fashion is incredibly heavy in CO2 output, so recycling won't do much at all to hamper this UNLESS people shift their purchasing away from heavy consumption. The recycling process very likely has significant CO2 impact itself, so here’s hoping it’s at least heavily reduced from using raw materials.
That said, I’m very excited about this, and SF offers recycling that’s very convenient. Much better than goodwill/thrift IMHO for more than lightly worn clothing—fast fashion doesn’t make good second hand clothing as it’s typically cheaply made and falls apart rapidly.
