Kate Hall: NZ Fashion Week - Sustainability in Fashion - Saturday Morning with Jack Tame

Kate Hall’s been at NZ Fashion Week this week and attended around twenty shows. She decided to share her perspective and thoughts as a sustainable fashion enthusiast:

+ Kiri Nathan opened (first Māori designer to open with a solo show - incredible representation & move for NZ Fashion). 

+ I’m reminded of the over consumption of fashion: attendees arriving in new outfits (some wearing multiple new outfits a day), outfit after outfit coming down the runway - new seasons. 

+ Excited to see The Graduate show include a lot of repurposed materials and styles. 

+ Slow conscious collection of 3 sustainable designers - though far less attendance at this one! 

+ Diversity of models - not as progressive as I expected it would be in 2023. 

+ Feels incredibly strange to have a fashion week that doesn't mention the makers as predominantly - only a few shows actually had storytelling & meaning in their shows.
