Up-cycling collaboration wanted!

[Jayne Mann]

Calling all fashion designers, graduates and students.

 

I am looking for designers to collaborate in our latest recycled fashion collection.  

 

We are a Social Enterprise currently building an ethical online and retail clothing emporium.  Our mission is to create sustainable business and employment opportunities for 16-24 year olds.  

 

We are looking to produce our very own ‘up-cycled’ collection made from only recycled fabrics.

If you wish to get involved or want more information, please get in touch.

 

Thanks,

 

Jayne

Thank you so much for your replies!

Over the next 6 weeks we are finalising our ideas and putting together some samples for our launch in May 2011.

We have a minuscule budget but loads of energy, enthusiasm and already got some great collaborations in the pipeline and would be more than happy to share the profits with a designer who was able to help us.

We are going to need help with: - sourcing fabrics / end of line clothing
- designing and working with recycled garments

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jayne
