IWAW presents Women Weaving Stories Through Sustainable Fashion, a mixed-media exhibition bringing together sustainable fashion, textiles, collage, and community-made artworks.

The exhibition showcases garments and artworks created from recycled and repurposed materials, embedding women’s personal stories of identity, migration, conflict, healing, and resilience. Drawing on fashion, traditional dress, contemporary art, and participatory workshops, the work reflects the creativity of women from diverse cultural backgrounds.

The exhibition forms part of IWAW’s ongoing collaboration with the Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum and highlights sustainability as both an environmental and social practice.
