WHAT IS THE CIRCULARITY MASTERCLASS?
The Circularity Masterclass is an educational platform created in partnership with the Graduate Fashion Foundation and Zalando.
This five-lesson course is designed to inspire and educate second-year fashion design students at UK and European fashion schools about the fundamentals of circular fashion design.
“The Circularity Masterclass broadened my interest and expertise, by giving me practical experience in making recyclable, sustainable clothes and improved my comprehension of eco-friendly design concepts and materials. This experience made me realise the importance of waste reduction and gave rise to creative ways of extending clothing life.”
Sarah Omonyeni Ajayi, Circularity Masterclass 2nd Place Winner 2023/24 from Manchester Fashion Institute
“My experience in the Circularity Masterclass made me even more conscious of the problems within the fashion industry and how, as a future designer, I can help drive a change by being mindful and sustainable from the very first stages of design.”
Erika Ramos Piñonosa, Circularity Masterclass Winner 2024/25 from Instituto Marangoni Milano
