This 3:30 video (I’m filled with gratitude for those who watch to the end🙏🏼🙏🏼) provides a snapshot of a PhD research project and workshops being conducted within this research, engaging members of the community who are passionate about discovering different ways to share, use and create clothing.
This research explores an alternative fashion system to other dominant systems that exist that offers a choice rather than buying new clothes, to look at what we already have and how we can extend the life of the clothes that exist within the closets of all members of a community.
The aim is to share clothes, knowledge and skills to build a community-driven circular economy as it relates to the repair, reuse, rewearing and recycling of fashion and textile products. #upcycling #circulareconomy #sustainableclothing #beginnersewing #repair #reuse #fashionreels
On my walk home from the subway I’m thrilled to see the momentum we’ve started with, building our community!! Comment on this reel by tagging one or two friends, asking them to join @goodclothescommunity and let’s keep this growing! More workshops, community collaborations, member profiles, how to upcycle and repair tutorials and more will be coming in the future! Lets go! #upcycling #circulareconomy #sustainableclothing #fashionreels #community #repair #reuse
