66) Defashioning and Creating A Pluriverse of Clothing Systems | with Fashion Act Now

Conscious Style Podcast

Can Big Fashion — fashion with a capital F — ever exist without exploitation of the planet and the humans and other living beings on it?

The more we dive into Fashion's perils, and how deep rooted these issues are, the more unlikely this seems.

In this episode, four members of Fashion Act Now — Sara Arnold, Sandra Niessen, Sam Weir, and Cindi Clark — are joining us to explain why they believe that we need to dismantle, decentralize, monolithic Fashion system and what kind of clothing systems could take its place.

Join us in this season finale of this podcast.
