Bringing together all things sustainable, ethical and local fashion in Brighton.

We're Brighton Fashion collective. We believe that sustainable fashion is local, community-led and collaborative.

Brighton Fashion Collective was established in April 2023 as a sustainable fashion initiative backed by two local nonprofits, Brighton Peace & Environment Centre, a long-standing charity, and Sew Fabulous CIC, a sustainable sewing and textiles studio.

Together, we unite Brighton’s sustainable, ethical, and local fashion community with a year-round programme of events, including clothes swaps, sustainable markets, panel talks, runways and workshops. 

Since 2023, we've...
