MAXIMISING LONG-TERM IMPACT
IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY
Launched since 2011, the Redress Design Award is the world’s largest sustainable fashion design competition. It is organised by Hong Kong-based NGO Redress, an environmental charity with a mission to prevent and transform textile waste to catalyse a circular economy and reduce fashion’s water, chemical and carbon footprints. The programme educates emerging fashion designers around the world in sustainable design theories and techniques in order to drive growth towards a circular fashion system. It inspires participants to change their mindsets and practices, and stop the creation of textile waste now and in the future, as well as designing systems and partnerships that generate and showcase value in existing waste and upcycling.
