A Sustainable Style Challenge by Cahoots
MERAKI, an innovative competition by Cahoots, challenged young minds to combine creativity, sustainability, and style by designing wearable outfits from scrap and discarded clothes.
Held with the goal of promoting eco-conscious fashion and mindful consumption, the event encouraged participants to look beyond trends and see fashion as a form of expression that can also respect the planet. From bold redesigns to minimal upcycles, every outfit told a story of resourcefulness, imagination, and environmental responsibility.
More than just a design competition, MERAKI is a call to rethink how we dress, consume, and create — where every stitch reflects care, and every piece has a purpose.
