SUST Fashion Show Reaction
"SUST 07 was absolutely amazing. When we asked a group of volunteers to get involved in AfSL's Eco/Ethical Fashion Show in Nov 05 we never imagined that, less than two years later, SUST would become such a strong group of designers, models and managers... Bring on SUST 08"
- Joshua Steiner, Action for Sustainable Living
"The atmosphere was electric it added to the whole experience and the brilliant success of the show…Ethical fashion should now have made a great impact on peoples thinking thanks to SUST! I know it has on mine."
- Samantha Rennie, SUST Model
"the event was grass roots and all about making a difference, its often the small changes that can make a huge difference, from people knowing about new alternatives, to shopping for brands like THTC, I was proud to have been asked to help out and even happier to be able to wear one of our t-shirts on stage, maybe now we can really start to make a difference via la THTC.co.uk "
- Dan Sodergren, SUST MC
"The SUST show displayed such an amazing array of artistic talent, from the clothes, jewellery, and accessories, to even the hair and make-up. But themost amazing aspect of it was the fact that fashion can be ethical, and it certainly has opened my eyes to a whole new wardrobe that can actually benefit the environment!"
- Dara Loy, SUST Model
"It was really encouraging to see so much 'accessible' fashion on display. Really demonstrated that being sustainable doesn't have to be an 'alternative' lifestyle these days! We think it's brilliant that there is so much creative fashion being designed in Manchester that is ethical, organic and great to wear"
- Sarah Pemberton, SUST Designer - The Northern Block
"It was really a fantastic experience, both in the sense of developing personal discipline and learning to work with others from many different walks of life, together in such a sparkling venture."
- Steven K Lau, SUST Model
