I have never considered myself a consumer of fashion, shopping only now and then and keeping my clothes for years on end. But during my quest to find the right fabrics for ultimate comfort and fit, I discovered the impact fashion is having on our planet. It was at that point I realised that I did not want to contribute to the problem but find ways to be part of the solution.
Along my two-year journey bringing Junk Republic to life, I spent a great deal of time looking for sustainable options, creating patterns, testing the fit and finding manufacturers locally in Sydney. It hasn’t been easy, but I do feel that the finished product is a great testament to a superior quality Australian made product from the latest available recycled materials.

I am committed to continuous improvement and will look for ways to improve everything that we do at Junk Republic. I welcome your feedback and suggestions at better@junkrepublic.com.au
Last, but most definitely not least, using our resources for good is as important as ever. There are so many great causes and limited opportunity to help. For me championing issues that are close to my heart is fundamental. As such, 10% of profits from the sale of every product goes towards charities that do great work.
