International Upcycling & Sustainable Fashion Festival

International Upcycling & Sustainable Fashion Festival founded to support international creative talent, emerging designers by embracing fashion in all its forms to inspire consumers and fashion brands.

The clothing industry has one of the highest impacts on the planet. Fashion is responsible for millions tons of global waste every year. Only around 20% of clothing is recycled or reused, huge amounts of fashion product end up as waste in landfills.

International Upcycling & Sustainable Fashion Festival highlights the creative and artistic work of the designers who are using innovative, sustainable and quality materials such as organic silk, recycled fabrics, organic cotton, forest-friendly fabrics and reuse unwanted and discarded materials, fabric scraps or clothes for their couture collection.  

Recycling is a big factor in sustainability, so creating new clothing items from recycled items such as used jeans, can avoid mass pollution and help to improve the environment by ultimately reducing their carbon footprint.
