Retraining Textile Thinking: Reusing, Repurposing, Rewearing and Reconnecting

with The Stitch Society

Sunday: 14.30 – 15.30

How can we re-engage with textiles? We have lost the need that our grandmothers had to reuse and repurpose, but it is even more important to make the choice to do this. How can we see through the greenwashing to the true way forward to a sustainable, better future for fashion and textiles.

Charlotte Meek’s love of textiles drives everything she does. Inspiration and education have always been important to her; passing on skills and sharing her knowledge is a large part of her business practice at The Stitch Society, inspiring those around her to develop their ideas as sustainably and ethically as possible. She now advises on ethical and sustainable manufacturing.
