Introducing Shrydhee Nasen.

Working with hand block-printed textiles created by artisan communities in India, she designs contemporary collections that celebrate generations of craftsmanship through thoughtful silhouettes, natural fibres, and intentional design.

If you'd like to see their work, head to BankWest Place between 1–30 September to see the looks we used for our CFF26 editorial campaign and magazine.

MEET THE TEAM

Born in Western Australia and built on a shared vision, the Circular Fashion Festival is run by the Circular Fashion Council and led by board and committee members Hazel Law, Heidy Sands, Elsa Durward and Charlie Smith.
​
Born in Western Australia and built on sass, substance and serious purpose, Circular Fashion Festival exists to:​

- Showcase trailblazing circular designers and slow fashion innovators
- Shift consumer behaviour through joy, not guilt
- Spark curiosity, creativity and connection
- Make circular fashion mainstream, not niche

In a world overrun with fast fashion there is another way, through conscious consumption, learning to love our clothes and ourselves. We’re imperfect on purpose, perfection isn’t the point, progress is.​

Whether you’re a designer, mender, or conscious consumer, or just curious, welcome to the revolution.
