‘Rags to Runway’ presents an eco-style showdown

With imagination and creativity sewn together, pre-loved garments were given new life and showcased at the recent ‘Rags to Runway’ trash fashion show, proving that style does not have to come at the expense of the environment!

Among the participants were young people from the Education Authority Youth Service Epicentre, taking part through the Neighbourhood Renewal programme.
