#202 - How Fashion Can Make Sustainability Fashionable with Lucy Shea of Futerra

The Social Entrepreneurship & Innovation Podcast

We still have a long way to go in terms of sustainability in fashion, but there are solutions!

Not only that, there is an increasing number of brands and organizations actively working towards change.

Today we’re back with another installment of our series on the impact of fashion. Joining us is Lucy Shea, CEO of the change agency, Futerra, to talk about sustainability in the fashion industry and why the fashion industry matters.

Lucy is an expert in the business of climate action and sustainable lifestyles and has advised clients such as Tommy Hilfiger, Unilever, Sky, and the World Wildlife Foundation. She radically reimagined garment recycling over a decade ago by creating the global clothes swapping movement, Swishing.

In our conversation with Lucy, She shares her thoughts on what she believes to be the most effective and respectful route towards change, and why she considers a living wage to be an absolute necessity for the future of our planet.
