The R Collective
Reduces waste and pollution, empowers consumers and raises funds for charity Redress.
The R Collective is a social impact upcycled fashion brand with a mission to create beautiful clothes using waste materials that was born from Redress, the pioneering Hong Kong based charity working since 2007 to reduce waste in fashion. With our heart set on reducing the estimated 92 million tons of industry textile waste that is created annually, we boldly pair creativity, courage and conviction to divert waste from landfill and incineration and into wardrobes. And so, The R Collective journey began.
We believe in minimising waste by challenging the way fashion is made. We create sustainable fashion using rescued textile waste sourced from world-leading luxury fashion brands and reputable mills and manufacturers, we reuse these materials through upcycling, reimagining the destiny of textile waste with timeless and versatile designs. With our innovative techniques and sustainable designer collaborations, we are catalysing the circular fashion revolution.
