THESE AWESOME HUMANS ARE BRIANA PETERS & MIA TRAVASSO!
They are passionate about protecting our planet. This inspired them to create a social enterprise called Nouvelle. The company upcycles stained and tattered clothes into reusable cotton pads, scrunchies, and thrift flips. This means less old clothes end up in landfills Fashion is a $2.5 trillion industry and is the second most polluting industry on Earth, right behind oil. Nouvelle helps reduce some of this pollution! The coolest part is that Briana and Mia are 13 and 14 year old girls who dedicate their free time to raising awareness on the harmful effects of fast fashion. They give people a way to take positive action. They started and managed this initiative entirely on their own, including making everything personally (LOVE) And their thrift flips are creative and awesome!!
Briana and Mia are very close cousins who have grown up together in Dubai. Ever since they were little as soon as they saw each other they would immediately swap clothes. Sometimes even Maddie (Briana’s younger sister) would join in on the fun! In three words Briana and Mia are Passionate, Empathetic and Change Agents. In their free time, they love to Dance, Create, and they have an insatiable thirst for knowledge.
To share our love and show our support, we can follow @nouvelledxb and stop supporting Fast Fashion To reach out and get involved with Nouvelle’s work and initiative, contact @nouvelledxb via DM!
