Sustainable Fashion Week may be over for 2024 but that doesn’t mean we’re slowing down - join us for our next event Fashion On Earth on Wednesday 6th November at Bristol Cathedral.

This Organic September we are highlighting one of our sponsors: The Organic Textile Company. 

The Organic Textile Company is one of the UK’s largest and most popular sources of organic and sustainable fabric and threads. Founded in 2005 by Phil and Ann Wheeler, the Organic Textile Company began in their home in Mid-Wales.

The Global Organic Textile Standard (or commonly referred to as GOTS) is a level of certification which covers several key areas across fabric production. Let’s explore what these really mean in the textile industry.

The Digital Red Dress is a collaboration between Bath Spa University and British artist Kirstie Macleod, led by Dr Coral Manton, Senior Lecturer in Creative Computing at the Bath School of Design, with support from Richard Wood and Fred Reed from the School of Art, Film, and Media. The project involved creating a 3D digital reproduction of the celebrated Red Dress using innovative 3D scanning and retopology techniques, broadening the reach and accessibility of the Red Dress Project to an online audience.
