Let us deep-dive into the next steps out of an overdressed world together. In the last episode of the show, our guests Delara Burkhard (Member of the European Parliament) and Kate Fletcher (Design Activist) discuss how a “Wellbeing Economy” and the concept of postgrowth can transform the fashion sector, which regulations are needed, the EU Textile Strategy and best-practice examples that exist today.

How will the environment benefit from a wellbeing economy model? What will a transition to producing fewer clothes mean for the textile workers? And what can you as a listener do? Our guests Samantha Sharpe (Professor and researcher) and Jennifer Hinton (ecological economist and researcher) are going to deep-dive into an industry away from growth.

When was the last time you went shopping for a new piece of fashion? Fashion, or at least clothes, are something that all of us deal with on a daily basis. But the fast fashion industry today has a huge negative impact on people and the climate. In this first episode, our guests Delphine Williot (Fashion Revolution) and Emily Macintosh (EEB) explain the phenomenon of fast fashion, misinformation, living wages and modern slavery, and why luxury is not necessarily more sustainable.
