WHAT IS THE MISSION OF PROJECT NU?
PROJECT NU WANTS TO REVOLUTIONIZE THE WAY WE TYPICALLY BUY CLOTHES. INSTEAD OF BUYING FAST FASHION, WHICH IS HIGHLY POLLUANT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND IS USUALLY CONCEIVED IN SWEATSHOPS. PROJECT NU EMPOWERS LOCAL ARTISTS TO REVAMP SECONDHAND CLOTHES INTO A ONE OF A KIND PIECE.
ALSO, WE WANT TO BRING AWARENESS TO THE OFTEN FORGOTTEN NEGATIVE IMPACTS OF THE FASHION INDUSTRY. IN ORDER TO DO SO, WE WILL INTERVIEW THE CURRENT PLAYERS IN SUSTAINABLE FASHION, SUMMARIZE THE INITIATIVES TAKEN BY THE“H&M” AND THE “ZARA” AND HIGHLIGHT WHAT ARE THE SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES OF FAST FASHION. MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE DON'T WANT TO SIMPLY FOCUS ON THE PROBLEMS BUT PROVIDE ALTERNATIVES AND SOLUTIONS TO FAST FASHION.
WHO ARE THE DESIGNERS?
THE DESIGNERS ARE FROM DIFFERENT FIELDS (FROM FASHION TO FINANCE) AND LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE (FROM SIMPLE INTEREST IN FASHION TO ALREADY HAVING THEIR OWN LINE). PASSION, TALENT AND DEDICATION ARE VALUED!
