Ika´s is more than a brand, it is an objective in life; there is so much fabric on this planet waiting to be used! Fashion has been a way for humans to express themselves but somehow has lost its connection with the planet. Through Ika´s Upcycling Erika wants to share the importance of respecting materials, processes and our innate style. By being resourceful we empower ourselves, bring value to our clothes and build our self esteem. Learning to mend is a good step towards fashion expression that no longer needs other people&#x27;s approval.</p><h3></h3><h3>SIGN-UP FOR SLOW FASHION SEASON 2022</h3><ol><li><a href="https://slowfashionseason.eventbrite.nl" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Sign-up on Eventbrite</a> to start your pledge.</li><li>Commit to no new clothes from September 1st to 30th.</li><li>Join the Slow Fashion community on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/slowfashion.movement/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/slowfashion-movement/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">LinkedIn</a> to explore a sustainable and ethical fashion lifestyle.</li></ol><p>#slowfashionseason2022 #slowfashionlifestyle #progressoverperfection</p>
