Sustainable Fashion Workshop

Thursday 7 March 2024, 10am – 3pm on campus

For National Careers Week we are working in collaboration with Barnet Council to run a Sustainable Fashion Workshop for groups of Year 12 and 13 students from local schools and colleges in the Borough of Barnet.

We have created the workshop to show students how to customise and upcycle old clothing as part of our responsibility to the environment.

The day will include:

  • Students customising or upcycling one of their own garments with our experts from fashion
  • Learning lo-fi options to customise their garment based on textile specialisms
  • Learning about applique, embroidery, knit tracing stitch and heat press stencils
  • Exhibiting work at the end of the day using mannequins
  • Hearing from the experts who are working in the fashion industry
  • An invite to the end of year fashion show

The event is free to attend and is open to all schools and colleges who are based in the Borough of Barnet.

All groups must be booked via a teacher. Students attending will need to bring a packed lunch and an old garment they would like to customise or upcycle.

If you would like to book for a group or find out more please contact n.wignall@mdx.ac.uk
