Wao Film Night - Fashion Reimagined

Wao Film Night - Fashion Reimagined

Tue 06 May 2025, 7:00 AM - 9:30 AM

Cinema Paradiso

SCREENING OF FASHION REIMAGINED and More!


Join us for a powerful evening of storytelling, inspiration, and change as we showcase Slow Fashion this May with a special Wao Film Night.


We’ll be screening the critically acclaimed documentary Fashion Reimagined, which follows British designer Amy Powney’s transformative journey to create a sustainable fashion brand from the ground up. It’s a bold look at what it takes to rethink an entire industry — and why it matters.


Also showing: Wastebusters' short film Slow Fashion, which shines a light on how our clothing choices impact the planet, and what we can do to make better ones.


Guest Speaker: Sue McLean, co-founder of McLean & Co.


We’re thrilled to be joined by Sue McLean, who will speak about the challenges and opportunities in today’s fashion industry and how we can be part of a global movement for change.


Guide Launch: Wao’s Slow Fashion Guide


On the night, we’ll be launching our brand-new Slow Fashion Guide — your companion for making conscious clothing choices, valuing craftsmanship, and honouring the stories behind what we wear.


Why Slow Fashion?


Slow fashion is a paradigm shift. It’s about treating clothing not as throwaway trends but as timeless investments — made ethically, worn with intention, and designed to last. It’s a journey back to our roots and a path forward for the planet.


Whether you work in fashion, love beautiful things, or simply care about a more sustainable future, this evening is for you.
