Just completed: the Fashion Ecologies research project involving three years of research about localism and sustainability change in fashion. As the funded research draws to a close, a new project website has been built offering findings, research methods, research papers and micro design projects, including a ‘haberdashemergency‘ sewing repair kit and a Pocket Guide to Fashion Ecology, amongst others.
