Redesign Case

The Redesign case is an initiative of Aalto University, taking place during summer 2024 in collaboration with Finnish second-hand clothing platform Emmy. A group of eight MA Fashion students from Aalto University are redesigning and remaking four – eight garments into capsule collections using Emmy’s unsold stock. These will then be available for sale on the Emmy online store. Alongside this upcycling exercise, a comparative object analysis will be conducted on the garments in their original reused vs. upcycled states.
