The scale of the climate emergency goes far beyond ourselves as individuals, it is a crisis for all of humanity. It is not a crisis any individual can solve, but designers can play their part. Fashion students were asked to consider how their work might contribute to social and environmental change and responsible design. In response to the scale of textile waste produced by both consumers and industry they were tasked with creating a “highly desirable” repurposed garment. This project asks students to personally address the climate emergency by gathering worn garments, otherwise destined for landfill, and save them!
