Rather than run-of-the-mill designs, The EcoChic Design Award<\/a> for five editions now have sought to challenge designers to think against the grain, work with up-cycled fabrics and create environmentally-friendly outfits that are nonetheless sartorially savvy.<\/p>

As the fifth edition was recently concluded early this year, Redress<\/strong>, the sustainable fashion NGO in Hong Kong will be taking the finalists' collection on a travelling exhibition in their home countries. From 10 April to 9 May, 10 striking eco-friendly garments will be on display at\u00a0Raffles College of Higher Education <\/strong>and at the same time promote the idea of sustainable style.<\/p>

The 10 designers, including\u00a0Laurensia Salim (Singapore)<\/a>, <\/strong>who won the Special Prize, <\/strong>and other 9 from Hong Kong, <\/a>China, Taiwan, Malaysia, UK, France, Sweden and Denmark, each contributed one design for the exhibition. All of which were made using the sustainable design techniques of zero-waste, up-cycling and reconstruction in an effort to cut waste out of fashion.<\/div>
Open to all, do drop by and hear about the\u00a0inspirations behind the creations and learn how you can play a part in reducing waste in the fashion industry. After all, the designers can only do so much, consumers need to take a step forward as well by supporting the cause.<\/div>
