The breakfast club is my 2019 graduation collection that was a semi-finalist for the world’s largest sustainability award - Redress. The Breakfast Club was the beginning of my mental health advocacy work. It was inspired by the struggle of men’s everyday mental health. All garments in the collection are sustainably made using minimal waste, recycled materials and deadstock. The Jackets are made from an innovative leather-like material called Pinatex, which is made from pineapple leaf fibres.
