Joining the cphfw schedule for the first time, Rave Review upcycled everything in their collection, and gave us food for thought.
Merging a non-waste approach to fashion, with the thrill that is this highly polluting industry, continues to give us a task many have attempted and failed.Rave Review proved it can actually be done – with as little as a campfire blanket and your nana’s floral duvet.
With Copenhagen Fashion Week’s new sustainability action plan unveiled only a few hours earlier, it quickly became apparent why some new brands have joined the schedule in this new decade, and how exactly they would make us uncomfortable, in our cosy obliviousness of what we’ve known as a glorified and flawless fashion event.
Only a warehouse away from the huge plot twist scripted by Carcel at their opening show, we entered a similar realm. A raw space filled with smoke, alarming red light and plastic pouches with plants trapped inside, brought about an eerie environmental premonition, which we became certain of as soon as the accusing voice of Greta Thunberg blasted from the speakers.
If it ever happens that buying new fabrics will be forbidden by law, we want all of our drapes, carpets and comforters to be reworked into high garments by no one else but Rave Review. For now, we will simply not shut up about it.
