The Genesis of the Concept
The idea behind “From The Street” was to showcase that fashion can be both beautiful and sustainable. It sought to challenge the popular narrative that sustainable fashion is dull, expensive, or out of reach for the average person. Instead, the runway brought forth designs inspired by everyday street style, thus proving that sustainable fashion can be accessible, affordable, and absolutely chic.
