Shape2 Re-Make Fashion Workshop

“How do we define fashion? ” How do young people show individuality through recycled clothing?

My project aims to re-think the public realm of the Beacon Center in Eastbourne as a space that can attract more environmentally conscious consumers.

A mobile workshop and event space based on the Victorian bathing machine and made from unworn, unloved clothing and footwear, will roam the Beacon Shopping centre. Stopping outside the centres main fast fashion retailers the structure will collaborate with these brands to host re-make fashion workshops and events. Visitors will have the opportunity to turn unloved fashion items provided by the stores into new, bold vibrant creations.

'We are the ones wearing the clothes, not the clothes that bind us. Please sustain your style'
