Seam Change

Have you ever wondered what happens to those clothes that get returned because of a faulty zip, or the ones that just never get sold in the first place? This type of textile waste is a common issue for brands big and small, but what are they doing with it? Turns out, some local Aussie fashion businesses are collaborating with other brands and designers to remake, resew, redye, remanufacture, or upcycle that ‘waste’ into something new. I want to find out how these collaborations occur; in fact, I’m doing a PhD on it, and I wanted to bring you along for the ride. So, join me, Julia English, on Seam Change, a podcast where I interview these creatives and ask them all my burning questions, from how they met each other, the steps involved in these types of partnerships as well as how it contributes to their business overall.
