Avant Garde 2012

Avant Garde, Live Eco´s upcycled fashion project, is underway for a second season. Together with the Design Academy of Fashion, Live Eco will be presenting an upcycled fashion show, proudly sponsored by Pick n Pay & The Body Shop, at The Green Expo at the CTICC on 24 November 2012.

This year DAF´s 1st years, as well as the 2nd years, will also be participating in the competition. They will be producing upcycled accessories for the event. This year´s theme : CLIMATE SMART.

There are fabulous prizes up for grabs for both our competitors and you, our readers. So keep an eye on the site for more details on how to enter.

Before the festivities begin, we need your help. We are asking you, the public, to bring any old and unwanted clothing to your nearest Pick n Pay clothing store, from July, and drop them into the clearly marked Avant Garde bins. Any left over clothing will be donated to charity. So start rummaging through your wardrobes now and we´ll let you know when you can start dropping them off and to which stores.

For more info feel free to email us on info@liveeco.co.za or keep an eye on Live Eco Fashion for more details.
