RUNWAY ROUND-UP

A celebration of leaders in fashion sustainability who use circular economies, considered carbon footprints, upcycling to minimise their impact on the environment. The Thread Lightly Runway x Deloitte was a beautiful visual feast from artisans who prefer to work with natural, ethically sourced and technically superior fabrics, or recycle second-hand pieces to give them another life. You witnessed specialist skills required for upcycling and saw how a sophisticated aesthetic and construction is achieved, complete with intricate and alluring detailing, all with minimal environmental impact.
