The Redefined Fashion Exhibition, a collaboration between NanoTextile and the Design School of Taylor’s University, is a notable feature of the event. The exhibition will run from June 9th to July 2nd, 2023 and showcase fashion designs that prioritize sustainability by incorporating unconventional materials, such as recycled materials, into their collections.
Fashion students incorporate a variety of unconventional materials into their designs, such as loom bands, trash bags, zippers, cable tights, and others. The gallery, nanotextile360° captivates both passion and innovation in problem-solving and utilising technology as one of the tools in promoting textile sustainability.
Additionally, a series of interactive workshops, textile gallery and stations are aimed at encouraging active participation. Visitors can participate in the No-Sew Craft Workshop on June 17th and 18th, 2023. During the workshop, they will learn to create mini tote bag, felt keychain and phone beanbag without using sewing machine. At the Repair and Upcycling Station, hosted by fashion design students from Vocational College of Sepang, visitors can have their damaged clothing items repaired or explore various upcycling options.
The highly anticipated “Jom Cloth Swap” event, scheduled for June 24th, 2023, offers an
exciting opportunity for participants to acquire “new” clothes at no cost. Instead of purchasing
new garments, participants can bring their gently used clothing items and exchange them with
others, injecting new life into their wardrobes without spending a dime. However, the benefits
of this event extend far beyond personal style and cost; participants to actively contribute to
reducing environmental impact.
Visitors also will have the chance to take part in the Learn and Embrace Workshops, which will showcase Beads Embroidery Artistry Workshop by ManekNya, Shop Green by BeeBag, Batik Colouring and Linocut Print of Totebag by Teja Studio, and other notable exhibitor.
