The circular economy is a system where materials never become waste, nature is regenerated, and responsibility is taken for the product’s entire lifecycle and its impact on the planet.
The road to circularity is not a straight route.
Getting the fashion industry to change from a linear system — of take, make, use, and waste — to a circular economy — where materials never become waste, nature is regenerated, and responsibility is taken for the product’s entire lifecycle and its impact on the planet — is full of twists and turns.
Congratulations to Redress for successfully organising the Redress Design Award 2024.
Discover stories from a diverse cross-section of Hong Kongers about their most treasured clothing items in Redress’ first photo and story exhibition. The collection showcases 11 individuals, including influencers such as Hana Tam, Jeremy Wong, and Bonde Sham, as well as everyday community members.
Whether it’s a toenail piercing a hole into just one sock out of a pair, a sweater thread catching on to a sharp edge and coming loose, or a pair of jeans ripping at the knees from an unfortunate scrape, many of us see little potential in mending imperfect garments. It takes time and effort, we think. In today’s world of convenience, clothes are so easily replaceable that we often forget that they can be fixed, revived, and cherished once more.
The circular aesthetics displayed in the photoshoot pay tribute to the role of circularity in driving fashion towards a more sustainable future.
Selected from around the globe for their subject expertise, each year our judges look for standout applications demonstrating skills in creativity, sustainability, and marketability.
Stay ahead of the curve with the latest sustainability insights from the fashion industry with Redress’ curated selection of learning materials.
