Clearly committed against fast-fashion, the young Rubi presents on her Insta account what she characterises as "alternative consumption".

Also a seamstress, she offers loads of tutos for creating a puffy dress from old curtains, a top from bath towels or an old shirt, boxer-style shorts for summer...

With Yasmin, she also presents a youtube channel dedicated to upcycling, called Rusmin.

Clearly in love with 35mm film, pretty Clara gives us a vintage-inspired Instagram account.

Upcycling for brands

Recently, some fashion brands have also turned to ethics, ecology or upcycling.

We love Les Récupérables, of course, who develop their collections using recycled fabrics from recycleries.

Modetrotter, which offers some upcycled collections from fabric scraps.

Or Heimstone and their adorable scrunchies also made from their printed fabric scraps.
