We love to dress up, but we don't like the toll the fashion industry has taken on the environment and our health. So, we're coming up with creative new ways to make fashion more sustainable and democratic. From using recycled and organic fabrics, to manufacturing locally, to openly sharing every step of the production process, we want to explore all the ways the fashion industry can improve. Let's meet up to explore these themes and share ideas!
