Junk Kouture is a global platform to unleash young people’s creative brilliance through a fashion competition which challenges the world’s hottest emerging designers and artists to envision, create and model high end couture from everyday junk.

The Irish version is well established with many fantastic entries each year.

It is great to see the interest in recycling from the schools and participants and amazing to see the talent for design of the students. RTE are filming the competition this year with the voting taking place this week.

At Thorntons we have supported some projects over the years and have had enquiries already for next year!
