A series of lightning talks exploring mending as a global movement.

Ever thrown out a top with a tear? In a time where fast fashion is exploiting people and the planet, how do we enjoy our wardrobes for longer?

Mending is Fashion Revolution’s answer.

Join our panel of mending experts in a series of lightning talks, where we will explore how mending clothes can be a sustainable way to enjoy fashion without adding to global problems, and can support and empower local community in the process.

This event is in collaboration with Fashion Revolution Scotland – a fashion activism movement involving designers, producers, makers, and menders.
