The UP Shop is part of UP Creative Hub CIC. By supporting our not for profit organisation you are ending the cycle of fast fashion and ensuring that garments are worn and enjoyed more than once.
The planet can not sustain the amount of clothing it is being demanded to produce, and we no longer value well made, well fitting garments. The UP Creative Community is dedicated to the circular revolution. As such we offer education settings workshops to discuss how with a little imagination, skill sharing and thought we can reduce, reuse and upcycle!
We wish to encourage this the circular economy and so offer a buy back scheme which allows you to borrow the item and return it for someone else to love.
We ask you cover postage and dry cleaning- and wear it responsibly! Every garment has its own Guest Book which documents its provenance and a message from those who have worn it before.
This item has been worn once to a Graduation Ceremony at University of Birmingham, it’s previous owner states “the dress gave me the confidence to walk down the ceremonial hall and stand on stage in front of hundreds of people”.
