These fellows will inspire me to never lose sight of my own dreams, and I cannot wait to continue learning and growing alongside such a powerful and meaningful team! "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Eco Chic

A 90 min sustainable fashion show which sought to educate our community on the importance of circulatory and material use in the fashion industry. It was a student run show, with talented students getting to create their own collections and showcasing a few of the pieces they had made and the stories behind their creations. Important people in the industry were invited to speak about their relation to sustainability in fashion.
