Sustainable Fashion Competition
Budding young UK fashion designers have now got a chance to create a new range of clothing for an established, sustainable fashion label.
The competition will be judged by nine leading sustainable businesses who will also act as mentors to the winners and includes labels such as streetwear hemp label THTC, the lingerie and women’s wear firm Enamore, From Somewhere, which uses recycled fabrics including cashmere, silk, cotton, jersey and tweed.
Three winning teams will then get the chance to work with their chosen mentor to create a collection in time for a catwalk show at London Fashion Week in September 2008.
“There has never been a more inspiring time to start a fashion business in the UK. The new generation holds the key to achieving positive change by creating products that are stunning in terms of design and innovative in terms of sustainability,” said Tamsin Lejeune, Founder, Ethical Fashion Forum.
