Jordyn Smith

Fashion's Prometheus

Sustainable fashion needs to be the new commercial and that’s what Jordyn wants to achieve. She started her collection by gathering images and objects from antique stores and op shops and then challenged herself to incorporate these stories from other people’s lives into her garments. She’s included a photo of her mother from 1989 on a jersey and that’s made her mother love the image again. Her collection proves sustainable fashion doesn’t have to be boring or made from one particular fibre and that it can also be fun!
