Dutch Sustainable Fashion Week 2024

This October FunFair Fashion joined the Dutch Sustainable Fashion Week (DSFW) at Jonas, IJburg Amsterdam. During this three day event we aimed to raise awareness about sustainability in the fashion industry. We screened the film Textile Mountain and engaged in a conversation with experts in sustainable fashion Roosmarie Ruigrok (Clean & Unique) and Moira van Dijk (Clean Clothes Campaign).

Remake's workshop Wear Your Values was hosted by Tammy Parrish from The Clothing Compass. Participants examined their relationship to their clothing, shared sustainability tips with each other and made plans for the future that were both personal and achievable. Tammy showed that thinking and talking about sustainability can be also be a lot of fun!
