DEFINITION
UPCYCLING
Upcycling is the process of taking something that is no longer wanted or needed and turning it into something new and unique.
Designers who are committed to sustainable practices can include turning an old t-shirt into a skirt or a pair of jeans into a tote bag.
Another popular method is to use scraps of fabric or textile to create new items, such as patchwork quilts or bags.
Overall, upcycling fashion is a way to express personal style and creativity, while also being more sustainable.
