Course Description and Details
Sustainability is all about doing things today, that won't endanger our ability to do things tomorrow.
When it comes to fashion, everything from creating the initial textile to discarding the final item of clothing needs to be thought about from a sustainability approach.
In this course, we look at a range of opportunities from natural dyes to styling an outfit from a second-hand shop - so that the people and planet of tomorrow won't suffer from our fashion choices of today.
