Designer Evan Hirsch is Redefining Glamcycling at NYFW with Sustainable Fashion

In an era where conscious design is becoming the new standard, Evan Hirsch stands at the forefront of innovation, proving that sustainability can be both refined and desirable. The New York–based designer continues to evolve his signature “glamcycling” movement. He transforms recycled and reimagined garments into couture statements defined by craftsmanship, versatility, and modern glamour. Most recently, in collaboration with ShopGoodwill, Hirsch presented his latest designs during New York Fashion Week on the official calendar of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA).

The creative presentation held in Tribeca showcased eco-conscious creativity with red-carpet-ready drama with a lot of fun! Hirsch’s creative formula is simple in concept yet meticulous in execution. For his ShopGoodwill collaborations, the focus has been on transforming pre-loved pieces into couture-level statements. But beyond embellishment, the process goes much deeper. Hirsch reconstructs each garment by redesigning silhouettes, recutting fabric, refining fit, and reshaping proportions to enhance movement and flatter the body. Seams are repositioned, hemlines are redefined, and structure is thoughtfully engineered before any glam is added.

Fresh paint, intricate detailing, hand-applied embellishments, and signature bling then elevate the piece into wearable art. Each design feels exclusive, expressive, and unmistakably glamorous—crafted for women who want statement fashion with a story behind it.

Evan Hirsch is also known for his innovative convertible dresses! Ingenious two-in-one creations that transform from long gowns to short silhouettes and back again. This versatility adds modern practicality to couture aesthetics and sets his brand apart in a ready-to-wear landscape that often feels creatively cautious.

Hirsch does not work exclusively in recycled fashion. He also creates original garments from scratch, demonstrating technical craftsmanship and design versatility. However, his recent partnership collections highlight his commitment to sustainability, proving that recycling can be refined, elevated, and editorial-worthy.

With relentless energy and fearless originality, Evan Hirsch continues to challenge expectations. Glamcycling is more than a trend, it is a philosophy. And as each season unfolds, he shows that reinventing the past may just be fashion’s most glamorous future.
