SFW Hub Torquay is hosted locally by Minycled Ltd and takes part in the national Sustainable Fashion Week programme, led by A Single Thread.
Theme of the Year: RESISTANCE
This year's theme invites people to challenge the current fashion system and imagine a better future. Resistance means: resisting overconsumption, resisting fast fashion, resisting waste, supporting independent businesses, strengthening local communities, repairing instead of replacing, sharing skills and knowledge, making conscious purchasing decisions, and building an alternative fashion economy.
Sustainable Fashion Week Hub Torquay 2026
About the Hub
A community event about keeping clothes in use for longer.
Who we are
Sustainable Fashion Week Hub Torquay is Hosted by Minycled Ltd and as part of the national Sustainable Fashion Week movement, organised by A Single Thread.
It’s a friendly two-day event where people can learn repair and upcycling skills, meet local
makers, and see what’s possible when clothes are reused instead of thrown away.
It’s built on people helping each other, not on selling for its own sake. Makers keep every
penny they earn, and the weekend is open to anyone who wants to come.
This year’s theme
RESISTANCE.
This year’s theme asks people to challenge the current fashion system and imagine a better one:
resisting overconsumption, fast fashion and waste, while supporting independent businesses,
repairing instead of replacing, and making thoughtful choices about what we buy.
Sustainable Fashion Week Hub Torquay 2026 is hosted locally by Minycled Ltd and takes part in the national Sustainable Fashion Week programme, led by A Single Thread. Taking place over two days at the Hampton by Hilton Torquay, the Hub celebrates the people, skills and ideas helping to create a more sustainable future for fashion.
Throughout the weekend, visitors can meet independent makers, handmade businesses, Community Interest Companies (CICs), students, artists and designers, take part in hands-on workshops, learn practical repair and making skills, and enjoy a fashion show celebrating creativity, individuality and conscious design.
