With the BBC’s documentary on the issues with fast fashion and clothing production, how can we make green choices in what we wear?
Stitched Up in Chorlton has a few ideas:
- Clothes swaps – including tips from a stylist, how to care for your clothes and more
- Sewing courses – make your own clothes; from beginners to advanced, one day workshops to longer courses, copy a favourite garment
- Yard sale – saving remnant material from landfill and passing it on at bargain prices
They are also the home of the Manchester Repair Cafe.
