In Conversation with Kirsty Máté: circular textiles and the fight against fast fashion As part of Science Week 2024, join us for an insightful floor talk exploring the significance of the slow fashion movement and sustainable textile recycling in an era dominated by fast fashion. In this discussion with Kirsty from the ReDress Hub in Launceston, we'll delve into the detrimental environmental and social impacts of fast fashion's rapid production and disposal cycles. We'll chat about the benefits of slow fashion, emphasizing quality, durability, and ethical production practices, alongside innovative approaches to textile recycling. We encourage you to bring an item of clothing to that you would like to repurpose for a group discussion on its potential to help to reduce waste and conserve resources. Join us as we gain a deeper understanding of how making mindful choices in our fashion and textile consumption can contribute to a more sustainable future.
