In March, Redress Raleigh celebrates its five year anniversary with a weekend-long conference focused on eco-fashion and textiles in the Southeastern USA and beyond!

Redress Eco-Fashion & Textiles Conference will expand the dialogue among boutique owners, designers, suppliers, and customers interested in transforming the current fashion and textile industry into an ecologically conscious and ethical one. Scheduled throughout the weekend are a number of activities including lectures, panel discussions, workshops, a marketplace, and a fashion show. Attendees of the conference will have an opportunity to learn more about the Southeastern USA’s eco-fashion industry, network with its active players, and become part of the growing movement.
