The opening of Beyondwear goes beyond fashion, it is an invitation to reflect on our actions as consumers and the impact they have on the environment.
By purchasing vintage and second-hand garments, it is possible to contribute to the circular economy and reduce the environmental impact of the textile industry.
One of the most outstanding characteristics of Fundaci贸 Formaci贸 i Treball and Beyondwear is their commitment to people’s wellbeing.
In addition to ensuring sustainability, they work to provide employment opportunities to vulnerable groups.
