Artist Statement

Hannah Jean is an online, customizable and boutique clothing label with a focus on education and the environment. My project is a response to the lack of sustainability in the fashion industry’s system and the affect this has on social behaviours.

Hannah Jean considers the environment at every stage of the product lifecycle and has developed a new system of designing and producing clothing. The customer is able to design their own garment via the online store, selecting from sustainable fabrics and trims. The website contains information on fibre content, printing techniques, clothes washing and production processes.
