FASHION RECLAIMED
Reclaim fashion through reclaiming your style, your connection to your clothing, your skills, your community, your love of colour, the magic of secondhand, the love of visible repair and the secrets of invisible repair!
Reclaim fashion through a variety of activities. Take action in powerful partnership with your network, or even just on your own… in an individual, unique resistance of the industry’s status quo.
SFW - HOW DOES IT WORK?
SFW 2025 is community-led. Our programme is split between our Hubs and our Fringe, with all activities being designed and delivered by brilliant and inspiring people in the community.
Our regional Hubs took place between 27 September - 12 October and had multiple activities to inspire you.
The Community Fringe runs for a whole month! A jam packed programme of one-off grassroots events and activities between 20 September and 5 October.
