Fashion Sustainability and the Self @ CERES

CERES Environment Park

Great discussion last night organised by CERES Global future – Fashion, Sustainability and the Self. Walk Sew Good, The Clothing Exchange, The Social Studio and My Sisters Wardrobe talked on creating a kinder and more sustainable industry including current industry practices, how to reduce purchasing impacts, understanding the power we have as a consumer, creative ways to recycle no longer loved threads, the joy of swapping, and the circular economy of borrowing, renting and sharing. ?? @thesocialstudio @walksewgood @theclothingexchange @__mysisterswardrobe__ @ceresbrunswick @ceres_global #sustainablefashion #fastfashion #recycle #renew #reclaim #remake #nowaste #whatshemakes #repair #mend #swap #buysecondhand #whomademyclothes #saynotofastfashion #fashionrevolution #fashionrevolutionweek
