Second hand vs Vintage workshop
Vintage is called second hand, and second hand is called vintage? Do you still get it?

Entrance is free, but save your seat.
Our campaign around Fashion Revolution Week: Stories on why inspiring others about your conscious lifestyle is important and get inspired by how other people do this.
“For years I’m part of the green and fair bubble. And I love the fact that in this bubble, I meet so many like minded people. Lovely people who care. No wonder right, I want this bubble to grow? Not just for us, but for our planet and future generations. I hope that everyone who feels it’s important that ‘our bubble’ expands, joins our campaign.”
Nanette Hogervorst, founder Sustainable Fashion Gift Card
“I try to take away the argument ‘I don’t know where to find sustainable fashion’ by introducing people to sustainable clothing, shoes and cosmetics brands.”

“I like to use upcycled materials in the garments I create. Friends and family bring me their old clothes. This makes me happy and they are happy about the new items I make from it. In this way, I try to inspire people around me and show them how you consciously consume clothing.”

“Slowly but surely, governments are taking initiatives to improve garment factories and the working conditions of people who work in the garment industry. But it is a slow and difficult process. That is why it is important that we pay attention to Fashion Revolution every year. Time to change!”

“I just share the most simple things people can do: Buy less, buy better and more durable products. Not just follow trends, instead create your own style.”

“I am committed to sustainability with my brand. So to tell my family and friends about sustainability, comes naturally. For example, I tell them about the choices I make in my production process, but I also take them second-hand shopping, for example, showing how much fun that is!”
Rachel, designer and founder SeeFeel
Our campaign will run throughout 2022, launching during Fashion Revolution Week, next stop Zero Waste Week and more occasions to come.
