Join us for a hands-on upcycling workshop transforming winter garments into fresh summer pieces!👕♻️
Led by Abigail Petit (Abigail’s Drapery), you’ll learn how to repurpose your winter clothes using innovative, inclusive textile processes rooted in sustainability and resilience. This event is hosted by the Birkbeck Research Centre for Environment & Sustainability.
The session also features a short talk by Professor Esther Leslie (Birkbeck), exploring fast fashion, circular economy practices, and local sustainability initiatives. Discover how small actions can lead to big impact—and take part in shaping a more conscious fashion future.
Open to students and the public — no experience needed, just bring an old garment and your imagination! This is an exciting free opportunity to get creative and learn more about sustainable fashion✨🌍
