On Wednesday 6th November, SUSTAINABLE FASHION WEEK hosted an event at Bristol Cathedral called FASHION ON EARTH. They invited me to take part in this exciting event which included a catwalk performance, makers market, exhibited pieces, live music plus other stalls including the Soil Association and GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard).
It was a really exciting event, not in the least, because artist Luke Gerram has created a large installation titled Gaia, a to scale, glowing sculpture of our planet Earth (it looks incredible and I can’t wait to see it. Gaia will hover above the catwalk). But also because it is an opportunity to discover some of the artists, makers and organisations working towards a better fashion future.
I worked incredibly hard to get work ready for this event and it will be the first public viewing of SARAH POLAND the natural dyed, limited edition, UK made clothing brand. A launch of sorts - showcasing a natural dyed corduroy bomber jacket in five different beautiful colour combinations plus a few one-off pieces - skirts and a kilt made from painted art pieces.

Launching the Ande Bomber.
A natural dyed, limited edition, chunky corduroy bomber jacket. Lined in luxurious organic bamboo silk, five beautiful plant based colours to choose from, with contrasting coloured rib and a cheeky puff sleeve, corozo nut buttons and helping to clear plastic out of the environment, with a recycled plastic Vislon zip. Lush.
Made to order = no surplus, no waste.
