The fashion ‘why’ – Part 3

The students formulate their own motivation and vision for sustainable fashion and design a creative solution for a more sustainable world.

The intention is to foster intrinsic motivation and visionary thinking about circular futures in students.

Before:

This brick is part 3 out of 3. Part 2 can be found here: The fashion ‘why’ – Part 2.

1

Let groups finish building their representation of their vision using clean waste and art supplies (e.g. a pop-up shop, repair café, swap platform, clothing with revolutionary materials). Alternatively: Let them finish representing their ideas through a poster.

2

Combine all creations on a large table or paper, into a sustainable fashion neighborhood. Let each group explain their project to the others using the Elevator Pitch method. Alternatively: Create a presentation market using the Café Presentation method.

Didactic tips:

  • Let all groups briefly write down what they made on the leaving a message handout, and what message they want to give to the world regarding clothing. Find a place where all designs and messages can be displayed, either in the school or at a public place. Alternatively, invite parents or save the designs for the days that parents come to visit.
