And the 2025 Business Challenge Winner is…

The 2025 Business Challenge was the most diverse yet. Restore, Gear Fix, Lonza, Humm, Bend Anesthesiology Group, DIYcave, and ReCoHere gave it their all and showed us how thinking outside of the box with materials can uplift sustainability through creativity and fun.

And for the 2nd year in a row, the winner is…. Gear Fix, with Moth Mess Monster, taking home the 2025 Rubbish Renewed Coveted Trash Trophy to add to their winning display! Congratulations (again) Gear Fix!

A Sneak Peak! | Rubbish Renewed

On Saturday, November 17th, a star-studded cast of garments arrived to Studio 3 to make their debut in front of the lights and cameras.  Captured perfectly by Tambi Lane Photography, the garments, designers, and models filled the room and held the audience captive for an entire evening.  We hope the innovation and creativity of these designers inspires you to come out next Thursday evening, December 6th to the Century Center, to witness more fantastic fashion in the real show.
