A sustainable fashion pop-up market that is offering free sessions to learn how to mend clothes is coming to Lewisham Shopping Centre this month.

Make Mee Studio is hosting a sustainable maker pop-up market at Lewisham Shopping Centre, as part of their Clothing Repair Station.

The market will open on Sunday, April 24 from 11am until 5pm and members of the public are invited to visit and learn how to mend their garments for free.

The pop-up overlaps with We Are Lewisham’s fashion month and falls during Fashion Revolution Week - which was founded in the wake of the Rana Plaza garment factory disaster in 2013.

Since then, they have grown to become the world’s largest fashion activism movement.

Paul Redden, Centre Director at Lewisham Shopping Centre said: “As part of Lewisham’s Borough of Culture celebrations, we are proud to host Make Mee’s sustainable pop-up market.

“We are looking forward to welcoming, and supporting, local fashion brands at the market and encourage guests to visit the one-day event.”

Jaime Greenly, Co-Founder of Make Mee Studio said: “Lewisham Shopping Centre is the perfect location for our pop-up market which champions talented local designers who are conscientious about the impact they have on their community and environment.

“We want to show shoppers that being fashionable and sustainable can go hand in hand.

“Guests will be able to pick up upcycled pieces, browse gorgeous handmade leather accessories and stunning homewares that they won't believe are made from scrap fabrics and more." For more information, visit here
