This Women’s Month,<br />

we celebrate four female<br />

designers who are into<br />

sustainable fashion. They<br />

produce magnificent<br />

garments while looking out<br />

for the environment.<br />

LARA KLAWIKOWSKI<br />

The Cape Town-based designer<br />

is one of the best when it comes<br />

to sustainability. Her eponymous<br />

label that focuses on avant-garde<br />

design is famous for producing<br />

stunning garments made from<br />

recycled materials, especially<br />

plastics.<br />

In 2020, she won the<br />

Innovative Design and Materials<br />

Award. She also won the coveted<br />

Changemaker Award at the TWYG<br />

x Country Road Sustainable<br />

Fashion Awards 2020. Early this<br />

year, she showcased her designs<br />

at the Sandton City Sustainable<br />

Exhibition.
