Singapore is gearing up for the inaugural Eco Fashion Weekend, an event that embodies the Little Red Dot’s dedication to eco-friendly practices, innovation, and ethical fashion.
As advocates for sustainable fashion, Green Is The New Black and The Conscious Festival are honoured to announce our nomination for the Eco Fashion Awards 2024, recognising our tireless efforts in pushing forward sustainable fashion in Singapore. Here’s all the information on the exciting event this coming April 19th to April 21st at 1880 Singapore.
Crafted and curated by a coalition of activists and environmentally conscious local fashion labels, this initiative stylishly addresses the urgent need for sustainability through engaging and interactive events which includes a panel discussion, a fashion show, and a workshop suitable for families.
Singapore is actively embracing sustainability with the implementation of the Green Plan, a roadmap towards a sustainable future by 2030. Eco Fashion Weekend aims to raise awareness about these issues while spotlighting local brands that are contributing to making Singaporean fashion more eco-friendly.
