TRAIDremade
Every year in the UK, 900,000 million items of clothing, shoes and accessories are thrown away. TRAID believes that some things are just too good to go to waste. TRAIDremade is an award-winning recycled fashion label that saves textile waste from landfill and provides a stylish alternative to fashion on the high street.

Founded in 2000, TRAIDremade designers give torn and stained clothing a new lease on life by mixing, matching, ripping, cutting, sewing and printing. From floaty skirts to fitted shirts, TRAIDremade follows the fashion trends widely available on the high street. However, as designers are working exclusively with donated materials, each and every piece of TRAIDremade is completely one-off and original. TRAIDremade clothes are dynamic and fresh.

TRAIDremade is available in TRAID’s Brighton, Brixton Shepherds Bush, Westbourne Grove and Wood Green shops. A limited range of accessories is available on www.getethical.com.
