"As a designer, those are the responsibilities that you need to take on board. We've got a world where we've only got finite resources. We can't just keep on making more and more and more, it's just costing the planet far too much."
In this episode, hear from Liz Mitchell, founder of Coralus Venture The Wool Revolution. Liz joins Development Guide Loren Walsh to discuss her background as a fashion designer with over 25 years of experience, challenges with the wool supply chain in New Zealand, and the environmental impact of the fast fashion industry.
They also discuss:
- Liz's connection with wool and its value, which led her to explore local wool production.
- Experimenting with different processes like hand-spun yarn, weaving, and needle felting to create textiles and products.
- The breakdown of supply chains during COVID which made local production more appealing.
- Liz's PledgeMe crowdfunding campaign.
- The circular economy aspect of wool, highlighting its sustainability, including creating living fleeces and biodegradable products.
