Description

Is thrifting actually sustainable? The rise of eco-conscious and budget shoppers alike have seen thrifting explode in popularity. While we celebrate keeping clothing in circulation for longer, are we at risk of falling into yet another ethical and environmental trap? We discuss the thrifting phenomenon, its impacts on fashion consumption and smarter ways to thrift. **** Stitch ‘N Bitch is a social meet-up for likeminded fashionistas, where we stitch (literally) to prolong the lives of our clothes and take part in a guided conversation. It's a cross between a roundtable discussion and a mending circle - you can bring along your own mending or sewing projects (*optional) while we engage in conversation on current fashion issues, trends and the future of the fashion industry.
