Wear The Change is a fundraiser and ethical fashion styling challenge held during Refugee Week 2022.
The campaign raises funds for The Social Outfit’s non-profit community programs supporting women from refugee and new migrant backgrounds with training and employment pathways in the fashion industry.
Join #WearTheChange2022 and wear 1 garment styled in 5 ways over 5 days, from June 20-24 (refugee week).
We're a fashion label with a difference; founded with the purpose of supporting refugee and new migrant women to kick-start their Australian careers.
"Absolutely outstanding creations with a unique touch, and in support of such a wonderful cause."
Crafted for you in our Newtown workroom using mostly donated fabrics saved from landfill. That's as sustainable and local as it gets.
Our diverse sewing team hand constructs each garment, meaning there are slight variations: making each item as unique as you are.
Every dollar you spend with us goes back into our employment and training programs for refugees and new migrants.
Our Retail Training Program is a work-readiness and employment pathway program for young refugee and new migrant women seeking their first Australian job.
"This is what a 'triple point score' looks like - economic, environmental and social/cultural resilience. This is what 'good' looks like and is ripe to be replicated and scaled."
