Entrepreneur: FASHION
As much as 60% of all clothes become waste within a year of their production, and 40% of all produced clothes are not even sold nor used. By reusing, redesigning and buying healthy materials that lasts, we contribute to circular fashion.
AT this event we have invited local entrepreneurs and designers working in the fashion business on sustainable premisses:
I Ull:produces gorgeous wool garments.
ReLi:clothing rental. This is circular economy in practical daily life.
You will also meet one of the participants, Turi Rudningen Galta, from the TV series, The sew championship, season 5. Redesign has become very popular in the last couple of year. Perhaps you will pick up some inspiration yourself?
This will be a social and informative evening for anyone interested in clothing. Whether you are curious about being an entrepreneur, learning more about reuse or simply just seeing what is going on in the region. Your bonus is meeting many nice people in addition to our great speakers.
