In October 2025, we were accepted as part of the @seattlerestored program and we had 6 months to test our wildest ideas. From day 1 we operated as if this isnât a pop up. We worked with the delusion that this was going to work.
We transformed it into a beautiful space from an old AT&T store with orange walls.
In a city known for its black and gray fashion choices, we brought color, natural fibers and craft.
We diverted 3000+ lbs of textile waste from our local communities to upcycle into beautiful garments and accessories.
We invited artists, leaders and community into our space to share stories of impact.
We created a hyper local fashion infrastructure with local artisans, and artists.
And at the end of 6 months - we are excited to announce that we renewed our lease for this space for the next year.
Thank you Seattle for embracing Transcend with so much love. We canât wait to continue building in community with you.
Featuring @oblivion.unknown

While the world looks toward the spotlight, some choose to redirect it.
Inspired by @nycmayor highlighting the garment workers, artisans, and makers of NYC instead of attending the Met Gala,
we turn our focus to the ones behind the scenes.
The team behind Transcendâs Soccer Summer Collectionâ
built on craft, intention, and the people who make it all possible.

What happens when you put resale, upcycling, and rental in the same room? A pretty inspiring conversation about the future of fashion.
Last week at Populus Hotel Seattle, we joined Evergreen Goodwillâs ReMake Days for an Earth Week panel on circular fashion â with Libby Johnson McKee, Nazia Siddiqui of Wear Transcend, and our own Ambika Singh breaking down what it actually takes to keep textiles out of landfills.
Different models, same north star: less waste, more wear. Grateful to be in the company of women building the industry we want to see. đ
Weâre proud to present âSoccer Summerâ by Transcend x @evergrngoodwill
We started with a simple question⌠what does circular fashion look like in the local community context and how can it unite us?
Through this partnership with @evergrngoodwill , we wanted to show whatâs possible when you keep high value materials in circulation. When you treat discarded garments as starting points instead of waste. Upcycling. Embroidery. Reimagining what already exists.
We also wanted to challenge what fan style can look like. Team spirit doesnât have to be mass produced. It can be personal, creative, expressive. Each runway look represented a country playing soccer this summer. Can you guess?
And most importantly, this work creates real opportunities in Seattle. Fashion can be a source of livelihood right here in our own communities.
Grateful to the entire team at @evergrngoodwill for believing in this vision and making this partnership possible. And to our amazing emcee Ryan for bringing the energy.
To our production team Maryam, Nahid, Palwasha, and Zainab⌠this show exists because of your skill and dedication.
To @sweetbrownpeach for running show production so seamlessly.
To every model who brought these pieces to life @oblivion.unknown@kasandrariley2012@sumitsaurabhofficial@charlotte.buhlom@at.natasha.g@myindigenous_fashion_life@hyunaincolor@alyssamgrigg@shubhangibansal__ Aseel, Shay and Hindi.
And to @joe_el_abbasi for capturing this collection so creatively.
Thank you!!!

In honor of @evergrngoodwill ReMake Days + Earth Week, Transcend created an exclusive upcycled collection inspired by the energy of Soccer Summer â˝ď¸
Made from discarded textiles sourced through Goodwill and leftover Transcend fabrics, each piece transforms waste into bold streetwear rooted in football culture, craftsmanship, and circular fashion.
Join us tomorrow to see the collection live alongside fellow local brands @lalu.lifestyle + @spentstudios â¨
#upcycledfashion #seattle #earthday #thingstodo
From corporate to cancha đ˛đ˝â˝ď¸
We took an old Microsoft shirt and gave it a second life⌠reworked into a Mexico-inspired football jersey just in time for FIFA World Cup season.
Same fabric. New story.
Upcycled, not overlooked.
Come see this collection on the runway tomorrow, 4/25/26 at 3 pm sharp. No tickets required, just show up.

Built different. Built responsibly. đ
This Earth Day, weâre not just talking sustainability, weâre showing what it actually looks like behind the seams.
At Transcend, transparency isnât a buzzword. Itâs the blueprint. Every choice, every stitch, every pause to rethink how we impact the people and the planet.
Domestic manufacturing in Seattle wasnât the easy route, it was the intentional one. Higher costs, higher standards. So we flipped the script. Turning waste into worth through upcycling, proving that profit doesnât have to come at the planetâs expense.
A for-profit brand that refuses to be extractive. A supply chain that values the hands behind the product.
This is what building forward looks like.
#EarthDay #SustainableFashion #Upcycling #MadeInUSA #TranscendFashion
Fashion doesnât have to end in waste.
The possibilities are endless when materials stay in circulation -
upcycled, locally made, and designed to live more than one life.
Last summer, we launched a fully Upcycled collection made entirely in Seattle within our hyper-local supply chain with design, sampling and production all happening within a 10 mile radius.
This year, we have added even more local seamstresses, textile artists, a natural dye house, and a logistics partner to our supply chain. A circular system, built in Seattle for our local communities.
