The Redress Design Award 2025 calls for tangible solutions for combating fashion waste
Pioneering environmental non-proft Redress is taking a major leap forward in a world burdened by fashion waste. Since its inception in 2007, it has been committed to reducing the fashion industry's increasingly burdensome impact on the planet. Now, the organisation has revealed the top 10 global finalists for the Redress Design Award 2025, the world's largest sustainable fashion competition.
The 2025 finalists were selected from a competitive pool of applicants spanning 57 regions. Their collections are built on principles of waste reduction, textile reuse and circularity, reflecting a new wave of creative minds determined to reshape the fashion world.

The competition underscores a straightforward message: the industry is in much need of change. With between 100 and 150 billion new garments produced annually, most of which end up in landfills or incinerators, the system of overproduction and overconsumption is pushing the planet to a breaking point. Redress finds that the industry alone generates an estimated 92 million tonnes of textile waste annually, which is projected to rise by 60-per cent between 2015 and 2030.
The finalists are: Casbeth Tshegofatso Marobane (South Africa), Lucie Albert (Germany), Carla Zhang (Mainland China), Mara San Pedro (Philippines), Hawon Park (South Korea), Nathan Moy (Hong Kong), Heyun Pan (Mainland China), Wen Hanzhang (Canada), Hugo Dumas (France) and Yixuan Nie (USA).
