IamUpcycled - Fashion waste
This was a research-driven project exploring the urgency of circularity in fashion through the lens of an upcycled garment. I AM UPCYCLED examined systemic gaps in the industry and proposed solutions for a more sustainable future.
This study combined academic research with a case study approach, applying the Theory of Change to address fashion waste. Alongside a research essay, the project featured a creative upcycled garment and a video illustrating key insights. Recognised and top graded, this project was later used by my professors as a model for the next academic year.
