Slow Fashion Festival stitches together brands, makers, organizers, and thinkers answering the call to change our high-consumption mindset towards clothes. Since their founding in 2022, the biannual Slow Fashion Fest has become a hub for conscientious shoppers across Austin. From panels to runway shows, the festival showcases sustainable solutions to keep clothes in your closet and find ethically produced, often locally made, items to become your new favorites. Their market space features transparent brands dedicated to fairness, creativity, and responsibility.
