On today’s show, we’re chatting with Pily, a Chilean researcher and journalist with over a decade of experience in the sustainable fashion space, working with Latin American magazines and work with sustainable brands and secondhand platforms internationally.

María Pilar, who goes by Pily, is currently doing a Masters degree in the Netherlands, and is deeply involved in creating investigative journalistic articles centered around the theme of migration and clothing. 

She shares her perspective on sustainable fashion and what she thinks is missing from the conversation. We discuss what it means that Chile is one of the biggest importers of secondhand clothing in South America and the impact it had on the local community, as well as her recent research on clothing and migration at the US-Mexico.

 —  all this and more on today’s show, so dive right into it! 

DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE:

  • [3:42] Growing up in Chile, Pily was never a huge fashion lover, but she has shopped secondhand most of her life. 
  • [5:44] She started reporting on – what used to be called – “green lifestyles” in the early days of her journey. 
  • [7:55] Pily’s perspective on sustainable fashion and what she thinks is missing from the standard conversation. 
  • [18:15] Chile is one of the biggest importers of secondhand clothing in South America, and this has had a major impact on the community in the north of the country, in the Atacama Desert.
  •  [28:25] In her most recent research on clothing and migration, conducted at the US-Mexico border, Pily found the stories to be about human realities. 
  • [37:13] The pre-loved clothes (and Chilean designers!) that Pily values.
