About this event

An evening with local Manchester fashion creatives. We wanna connect Manchester fashion creatives with each other, and talk about how we can work together to create a more circular fashion economy in the local area. There will be panel chats with local creatives on the subjects of: Personal Style and Self employment. There will also be stations to discuss and generate ideas, and we will making active network connections (ie. not just sticking you in a room but making introductions etc.). We want this to be a space where people can make new local connections and generate ideas on how we can work together to promote local circular/ slow fashion to the everyday fashion consumer. You don’t have to work in fashion industry to join. We want people who have the passion and drive to make a difference. So if you have skills or ideas that could be used to help others in the local fashion scene – and you wanna get involved- please come along! We will have: A free repair station Live Fashion illustration Sketches Free Downloads of info packs for copyright design infringement Petition/ open letter Signing for legislative action against fast fashion brands Proceeds will be donated in aid of MASH
