Our main mission at Remnant Revolution is to build and empower women-led communities while championing sustainability by rescuing fabric from landfill to create unique homeware.
Empowering local women
We collaborate with local women from diverse backgrounds, investing in and training skilled seamstresses to handcraft our products. Through our sewing workshops, we strive to promote self-sufficiency while strengthening community bonds for a more unified future. We are also committed to donating a portion of our profits to local charities.
Saving fabric from landfills
We exclusively source our fabric from factory surplus and that would otherwise be destined for landfill.

Meet our Founder
I wrote the business plan for Remnant Revolution during a hospital stay in mid 2023. Inspired by the women I encountered on my ward, isolated, lonely and unemployed, I recognised the transformative power of community and wanted to create a business that worked with women, for women, irrespective of a language barrier. The common denominator was that all the women could sew. With my passion for fabrics and loathing of waste, Remnant Revolution was born. I have a background in PR, marketing, events and fashion. I have three young children and lots of pets!
We follow the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals
