Sustainable Couture

Description

Sustainable Couture is a thriving network of Australia wide designers who have fused their skills to forge a unique approach to recycling, refashioning and reconstructing textiles.



Members have been creating one-off, edgy fashion designs, accessories and

homewares, as well as focusing community attention on

sustainability through the endless possibilities of recycling, upcycling, repurposing and reducing textile waste, since 2009.



The collective energy of the group is refreshed annually by way of new designers being invited to participate in the parade and pop-up shop or the return of past designers - the ebb and flow is managed by a core group. This group also shares the following overall responsibilities including, seeking funding, coordinating the various events’ program, social media activity, public relations, website management, producing the parade, coordinating designers and their models and hosting the various event!
