Topshop to launch eco-clothing collection

Avilable first in Topshop's Oxford Street branch

The high street fashion retailer is to introduce a new line of clothing, made from surplus stock and production off-cuts, through a partnership with Reclaim to Wear.

The first collection will be available in Topshop’s Oxford Street branch and online, from 15th June. The line includes a blouse, a sweater and two maxi dresses.

Orsola de Castro, Reclaim to Wear creative director, said: "This is the first step towards the creation of zero waste design collections. I trust that the Topshop team's commitment to new sustainable solutions will lead to the reconsidering of consumption versus disposal throughout the whole fashion industry supply chain."

Founded in 1997, the eco-fashion label, Reclaim To Wear, aims to cut the amount of waste fabrics in the apparel and fashion industry.
