Kirkstall: Mother Earth Fashion Remade
July 21 @ 2:00 pm
Kirkstall Art Trail 2024 is launching its first sustainable fashion show, ‘Gaia – Mother Earth Fashion Re-made’.
On Sunday 21 July, trail volunteers are turning the Nave of Kirkstall Abbey into a catwalk to host 20 local designers. They invited local residents to take part, with the challenge of transforming second-hand clothes into fabulous new outfits.
Each of the designers has a budget of up to £30 to spend at Kirkstall’s Cancer Research Superstore. With many of the items at only £3, that budget will go a long way. Choosing their own model, whether a friend or a member of the family, they are not limited to who can wear the clothes. Kirkstall Art Trail is creating a culture of inclusion, anyone can sashay down the catwalk.
It is a timely reminder that changing our lifestyle habits, to help out planet, is crucial. But it doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice everything, it means more cash in your pocket and a great wardrobe.
Gaia – Mother Earth Fashion Re-Made is showing at 2pm on Sunday, 21 July, 2024. The Nave, Kirkstall Abbey. Free entry.
