About

Holly McQuillan is a lecturer in the fashion design program at Massey University’s College of Creative Arts in Wellington. Her research focuses on sustainable design practice within a contemporary material culture framework. Since completing her Masters of Design, which explored the presentation of cultural memory through garment design, her work has focused on exploring the possibilities that arise when garment design is restrained by one goal – zero-waste. She presented her research at IFFTI 2009, 2010, exhibited her work in Seoul, Chicago, Kent, New York and Wellington. She is profiled in Sass Browns book EcoFashion and a chapter in Shaping Sustainable Fashion, edited by Alison Gwilt and Timo Rissanen. She is co-curator of Yield: Making fashion without making waste, the first significant survey exhibition of Zero-waste fashion practitioners which opened in NZ in March 2011 and is opening in NY in September 2011.
