From Overwhelm to Empowerment: Taking Action Against Fast Fashion


Listen Later

TLDR: Learning the truth about how your clothes are made is overwhelming but there's one simple & wonderfully life-enhancing thing you can do about it.

I want to put that up front because, if you (like me) are likely to skip past this episode & continue to bury your head in the sand because the state of fast fashion is so damn depressing, you may well believe there's nothing you can do about it. That's not true!

In this episode Maxine Bedat, Founder and Director of fashion industry think & do tank New Standard Institute, takes us around the world following the life-cycle of a pair of jeans & the very simple thing we can all to do combat fast fashion.
