Relove Fashion is a Sustainable Fashion competition open to students of secondary school age in the Eastern, Midlands and Dublin region. The competition was developed and is funded through a partnership between the Eastern and Midlands region local authorities and the Rediscovery Centre, Ireland’s National Centre for the Circular Economy.

This trailblazing competition was developed in response to the devastating environmental and social impacts of the fashion industry, the need for change, and the recognition of young people’s pivotal role in shaping innovative solutions.
