Why is SARAH POLAND showing during Slow Fashion Week?

Here outlines the brand's commitment to sustainability and how we achieve this through our design practice and business model:

SARAH POLAND is an artisanal, natural plant dyed, slow, UK made purpose driven contemporary clothing brand, which celebrates the tension between form and ethics and is uncompromising in its responsibility to the world it draws from.

It’s circular fashion model helps to redefine luxury by integrating natural dyes, zero-waste design, non-toxic, organic and regenerative agriculture into every stage of production. The concept closes the loop by ensuring that all materials used are either biodegradable, recyclable, or compostable, returning safely to the earth at end-of-life without toxic legacy.

FASHION DECLARES! hosts Crafting Fashion Futures, a regenerative fashion futures event in the beautiful 1920’s Conway Hall in King’s Cross on 17th September 2025. It’s a great start to London Fashion Week and I’ll be showcasing a collaboration with Safia Minney - her organic cotton fabric, my design and natural dyed, painted dress. Safia founded People Tree, a pioneering sustainable and Fair Trade fashion label and Fashion Declares.

It's July and the dye garden is bursting with fecundity - of both plants and ideas.
Here’s a very short video of part of the regenerative natural dye, food and medicine garden, it forms a part of the forest garden.

The Serpentine Gallery Summer Party is THE event on the art calendar. 

Photographer and film maker Mark Lebon, known for his boundary breaking fashion photography in the 1980's and 90's, wears a commissioned SARAH POLAND kilt to the Serpentine Gallery Summer Party 2025.

The why and what SARAH POLAND Art | Fashion is about and stands for as a clothing brand with sustainability and ethics at its core, with zero waste, circular design principles.

In the studio, this year for me is all about getting out there - gaining visibility, collaboration and well, just keeping on keeping on.

This month and probably next month too, will be a creative time. For many years I’ve wanted to create my own wardrobe, wear mostly my own designs.

You could call it a capsule collection, perhaps a mini collection, I’m just going to call it a wardrobe for now.
