Visitors can immerse themselves in the latest trends and insights shaping responsible fashion with the Source Catwalk Show, presented three times daily. This season, the catwalk puts pre-loved garments centre stage through a new partnership with leading circular fashion platform Reskinned.

The result is a bold, visual statement that proves pre-loved fashion is not only sustainable, but undeniably stylish.
