SHAPES IN THE SAND Presents: The Worn Well Project

In celebration of Fashion Revolution Week, we’re proud to share The Worn Well Project, a showcase of conscious style, local shopping, and clothing with meaning. Pairing preloved finds from vintage stores and op shops with SHAPES IN THE SAND swimwear, we created looks that reflect Australian fashion at its best. Considered, creative, and inspired by our natural surroundings.

Captured by Alice Lewis (@shecriedwolf) in Burleigh Heads, five unique looks celebrate Australian style in all its colour and individuality. For us, sustainability is a way of life, slowing down, supporting local makers, and choosing pieces made with purpose, worn well and worn often.
