For the last 9 years, womenswear designer Angel Chang has been developing a sustainable fashion line with ethnic minority artisans in Guizhou Province, China.
In this episode, model/activist Cameron Russell asks Angel about her journey designing the collection and living in the mountains surrounded by nature.

• Where is this village and how did you find it? 
• What is traditional knowledge? 
• Why are you launching a collection now? 
• How is your collection made? 
• Why did it take 9 years to develop? 
• Raising awareness of fashion industry pollution
• GMO cotton vs. organic cotton
