The Re-Pete Project Limited Sustainability

What do our labels mean?

The Re-Pete Project Limited is a fashion brand built around circularity and sustainability. It describes itself as a luxury, gender neutral, non seasonal label that designs around high-quality fabrics meeting circular principles, rather than designing first and sourcing later. The brand says it was created to help transition fashion from linear to circular, with sustainability considered at every stage of the process, including design, sourcing, manufacturing, packaging and end of life. It has also stated that it aims to preserve the planet, reduce waste, and support better working conditions and fair pay in the fashion industry.

The Re-Pete Project Limited Sustainability Actions

Launched a circular label

In 2021 launched RE-PETE. RE-PETE is a luxury label that is gender neutral, non seasonal and a force for good transitioning the fashion industry from linear to circular. When we find fabrics of the highest quality meeting circular principles we design around it - not the other way around - adding gradually to our modular collection of timeless pieces.

Made an anorak from waste

We started with an anorak made entirely from single use plastic waste. THE RE-PETE PROJECT creates anoraks with 29 recycled bottles per coat. Each coat is 100% recycled and 100% recyclable.

Runs beach cleans

We organise monthly community beach cleans and I guest lecture at universities to help share and empower future generations with the knowledge that we can create a sustainable future through our choices, be it circular design to picking up plastic from our shores. Anyone is welcome to join our beach cleans which mainly happen on a low tide on the banks of the River Thames seeing that we are London based - dates are posted regularly on our Instagram @therepeteproject.

Uses local supply chains

There are plenty of supplier options half way across the world, but it is also important to me that everything is local to reduce carbon admissions. My anoraks are only available locally to the UK and EU so they won't be flown half way across the world.
