Tesco- From Somewhere for F&F recycled clothing

It is starting to happen – recycled clothing has hit the mainstream. UK supermarket  Tesco have teamed up with ethical fashion company From Somewhere to produce a new line of clothes made in a LEED certified factory in Sri Lanka from old Tesco clothing stock that would otherwise end up in landfill. And prices start at an affordable £16 (NZD$35).

You can read more here from the Guardian.

It’s time for New Zealand fashion companies to start recycling their old clothing stock and become more sustainable (as well as providing clothing made sustainably, ethically and with low environmental impact).

We would love to know if there is anyone in New Zealand already doing this?
