In the organizer's words:

Fair Fashion & Design made in Düsseldorf: On Saturday, January 24, 2026, the third edition of the SUSTAIN! format will take place as part of the 2026 Winter Edition of Düsseldorf Fashion Days. After the Bilker Bunker (2024) and the Fürstenpalais (2025), SUSTAIN! is now moving to the Theatermuseum Düsseldorf.

On two floors, SUSTAIN! will present a snapshot of almost 25 local and regional labels that pursue a sustainable approach in the areas of fashion and design as part of a one-day pop-up market. The pop-up market will be accompanied on Saturday by the Green Fashion Tour, which will travel to various "eco-friendly" concepts in the Düsseldorf city area on the HopOnHopOff bus in cooperation with Visit Düsseldorf & COSH.

The market will be accompanied by various workshops, such as from the Swiss label FREITAG, which operates a store on Düsseldorf's Hohe Straße, or a screen printing event by the ONEOFTHEM screen printing workshop from Flingern.

The event, initiated by the Düsseldorf Economic Development Agency and curated by Düsseldorf magazine THE DORF, is intended to illustrate which forms of sustainability could establish themselves in the fashion and lifestyle industry in the future and aims to provide new impulses and perspectives. Free admission to the pop-up market.
