We love a good fashion competition that helps to discover new talent, especially when its got sustainability at the heart of it.

And now, Thrifty.ie alongside the folk behind The Useless Project have launched a nationwide search for Ireland’s next top sustainable stylist. Thinking consciously and with the planet in mind has never been more important with it comes to fashion and this competition is to encourage the slow fashion enthusiasts who are up cycling, thrifting and wearing preloved clothing.

Not only will the winner of the competition get a trip to a charity shop warehouse where they will have access to countless incredible finds before they hit the shelves, but they’ll also get a cash prize of €100.
