📩 Our 4th FASHION-UP Newsletter Is Here!

  • Feb 27

We’re excited to announce the release of the fourth edition of the FASHION-UP newsletter — and this one is special.

In this issue, we look back at the final chapter of our 28-month journey. You’ll find highlights from the Final Transnational Meeting in Florence (February 18–19, 2026), where all partners gathered to validate results, evaluate the impact of the UpTraK programme, and plan the sustainability of our project outcomes.

And of course — we take you straight to the most anticipated moment of all: the FASHION-UP final fashion show. Discover how the collections created during the pilot courses — Rinascimento 2.0, O Mar Que Nos Une, Reclaimed Elegance Line, and Textile Memories — impressed a packed audience with 100% regenerated, runway-ready designs. From vintage garments to forgotten textiles, creativity transformed waste into elegance.

This newsletter also features:

  • A recap of the 220-hour pilot courses implemented in partner countries

  • Insights into the Upcycling Training Kit (UpTraK) as a lasting Open Educational Resource (OER)

  • Reflections on the impact of sustainable craftsmanship and green self-entrepreneurship

  • What’s next for the FASHION-UP legacy

Whether you’re an educator, designer, student, or simply passionate about circular fashion, this edition captures the energy, results, and real change behind the project.


The project may be ending — but the movement continues.
