Their disagreement gives the book a way to explore the environmental costs of the fashion industry alongside the practical challenges of raising awareness and trying to create change. Upcycling, personal style, and activism are closely connected here, with the fashion show serving as the setting for the teens’ competing ideas.

Book overview

A teen decides to create upcycled clothing for a fashion show and expose the costs of fast fashion--and learns about effective activism.

Montreal teen Pearl is passionate and dedicated both about fashion and the environment. She decides to make a point at her school's fashion event by up-cycling donated, used clothes in exciting styles. But not everyone, not even some of her friends, is on board with ditching fast fashion for thrift-store creativity.

While Pearl wants to showcase up-cycled and secondhand clothing, her best friend is drawn to the appeal of fast fashion. As they navigate these contrasting ideals, a strong desire to raise awareness about the fashion industry's environmental impact sparks a call to activism.

Balancing the excitement of activism with its challenges, the teens realize that change is harder than it seems. But the friends come together to embark on a journey that celebrates the potential of sustainable fashion.
