“I believe that it is our responsibility as humans to take care of this world, but as days go by everything seems to be getting worse. Being a sustainable fashion designer for me is a step in the right direction in lessening the negative impact of this industry on the world by turning waste into wearable art”. - Jann Christian Bungcaras
redress Design Award Collection
For his Redress Design Award collection, Adam’s Dominion, Jann is inspired by the responsibility God has bestowed upon people after creation and the mistakes we have made. Jann reflects on his own fashion journey by reconstructing his personal wardrobe mistakes into his collection, along with up-cycled cut-and-sew waste, damaged textiles and unsold clothing waste creating versatile outfits that can be styled in interchangeable ways.
