EXPLORE THE IDA 2025 WINNERS - GET INSPIRED BY OUTSTANDING DESIGN!
Created by nine-year-old designer Max Alexander, the Guinness World Record holder for Youngest Runway Fashion Designer in the World, “Grounds for Change” transforms discarded coffee bean bags into couture-level garments. Each piece is hand-dyed, cut, and sewn by Max using natural pigments and reclaimed materials, reimagining waste into wearable art. The collection explores how sustainability and luxury can coexist. Rooted in Max’s belief that fashion can be a force for good, Grounds for Change challenges the industry to rethink beauty, value, and impact.
