The new and exclusive,
engineered zero waste designer clothing label “Sarah Newall”, made by me for
me.
Since 2014 the focus
and direction of my practice has been on sustainability. I am trying to live by
the zero waste principles of refuse, reduce, recycle, reuse, and rot. In line
with this I am rethinking my wardrobe to bring it in line with sustainable
principles, and to bypass the possibility of buying unethically produced
clothing that is poor quality ‘fast fashion’. To create Fashist (Summer Wardrobe)
I used stockpiled fabric from a fashion project I did in 2007, as well as
acquired materials from Reverse Garbage, fabric remnant shops, donated materials
and wool from family and friends. Fashist will now be forever ongoing and
evolving.
