Meet the Finalists

Behind the scenes of the 2023 Finalists' sustainable fashion collections

Wen Hanzhang

“My focus is on how we can speak for sustainability in fashion through durable materials and experimenting with techniques such as low-waste and modular design.” – Wen Hanzhang

Ruwanthi Gajadeera

“Fashion can be a powerful platform for advocating for a sustainable and equitable world for all.” – Ruwanthi Gajadeera

Pavneet Kaur

“It’s always been exciting to work with waste, exploring different innovative design solutions that challenge traditional practices and inspire a more conscious approach to fashion consumption.” – Pavneet Kaur

Nils Hauser

“Sustainability to me means finding ways to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Creating beautiful clothes should not have to come with the downside of polluting the planet.” – Nils Hauser

Molly Ryan

“I see myself as part of a groundswell of up-and-coming designers who [see] the exciting possibilities that arise from working with the anonymous detritus of material culture.” – Molly Ryan

Mandy Fong Sze Man

“I want to use my platform and brand to embrace the slow fashion movement and create planet-forward pieces using meaningful materials to extend the life of our clothing.” – Mandy Fong

Kim Yanghun

“I would like to contribute to sustainability by using recyclable materials with new technologies or methods. The design that has originality and sustainability can live long.” – Kim Yanghun

Jasmine Leung

“My aim is to change the stereotype of sustainable fashion being unattractive by creating a new image of eco-fashion and redefining the meaning of beauty.” – Jasmine Leung

Frances Brunner

“Our drive should not be to create fashion that happens to be sustainable, but rather to create sustainable systems that happen to be fashionable.” – Frances Brunner
