Trash to Fash is Temasek's first-ever upcycling competition, to raise public awareness about the circular economy and inspire youths to develop sustainable solutions. The three-month competition challenged participants to design clothing using rPET fabric and other upcycled materials.

A total of 25 participating teams collected over 5,250 bottles to exchange for rPET fabric, attended workshops with mentors in the fashion and design industry, and spent time creating their apparel and developing pitch videos for their designs. Through the competition, participants learnt about the value of “trash”, what it means for the fashion industry to adopt a closed loop supply chain, and how materials can be upcycled into fashionable apparel.
