I have the privilege of working with many great professional people who help me style my ideas, she says. Sarah says that she is grateful to the hair and make-up team of Jeahan on Instagram), Kathy Lea Laura Lina Courtney courtneyyywarddbeautyy), Charlie and Jade who will be getting the team of models ready for the show, photographer Alan,D&H entertainment and all the models. There will be 21 models taking part for Jeahan and her hair and make-up team to get ready for the show and Alan will be taking photographs.Īccessories made from upcycled bottle tops by Re.Creartĭeborah Allan hand-makes gorgeous earrings out of bottle tops and other recycled items. This is frightening, so I decided that the show would be based on reuse and recycling. Roughly 140 million of those items could be recycled.Ĭlothing has the fourth biggest impact on the environment, causing 10% of all global emissions. I wanted to show that vintage, upcycled, recycled and sustainable clothes can be styled and re-used, says Sarah.Īccording to statistics we throw away up to 70lbs each of clothing a year, which equals to 235 million items of clothing going into our landfill sites. I decided that the catwalk models would be family and friends, as this then makes clothes accessible to everyone.Īs many of us are now realizing, throwaway fast fashion can come with hidden costs, from the working conditions of the people employed in textile factories to the environmental impact of the production process and the garments which are cast off and sent to landfill. They were both on board, so I started to get organizing. I approached the two people that always support me whatever I throw at them Jeahan Liz Tuddenham, a professional hair and make-up artist and tutor at Norwich School of Beauty, and photographer Alan Lyall, she says. Sarah began assembling a team, with friends and family stepping up to help organize the show. “I am a great believer that we should never forget our lost loved ones and whatever I can do to support charities I will. One of the charities that the Rock My Style fashion show is raising money for is the stillbirth and neonatal death charity Sands. Sarah’s friend and colleague Emily O’Dell, who died six years ago. Sands is a charity that quietly sits in the background, but does an amazing job, supporting bereaved parents, families and friends. We suddenly lost a friend and colleague Emily ODell and baby Finley six years ago, she continues. When someone loses a baby, it is devastating, life-changing and isolating, she says.īeing a parent myself I cannot imagine anything worse. One of the good causes the event is raising money for is the stillbirth and neonatal death charity Sands.Īs Sarah explains, it is a charitythat is especially close to her heart and some of the models taking part. I’ve been involved in fashion shows before and I just thought it would be great to organize one after the horrific two years we have had with Covid 19 and put something back into the community whilst raising money for charity. The idea for the show came to me whilst at work, says Sarah. The event will be packed with clever styling ideas and tips for those of us who are trying to shop more sustainably and mindfully. On Sunday, Sarah and a host of vintage and pre-loved businesses from Norfolk are coming together at Eaton Community Center in Norwich.
