The creations of fashion darlings Zandra Rhodes and Yeohlee Teng, plus those of 11 other leading international designers, are coming to New Zealand for a new exhibition that is then bound for New York. Yield: Making Fashion Without Making Waste will showcase garments that are created with zero or minimal fabric waste. All other aspects of the exhibition process, like design and installation, will also consider the environment.

Yield is curated by Holly McQuillan, from Massey University Wellington, and Timo Rissanen, from the prestigious Parsons The New School for Design, New York (the inspiration for the television show, Project Runway) who are also designers in the show. They share a passion for reducing waste without compromising style. The exhibition’s innovative design is by Massey University School of Design Lecturer, Chris Jackson.
