Do you know where your clothes came from?
Episode 7 of 'Women in the World' has me discussing fashion with Orsola De Castro. Considering I am a socks and sandals kind of guy, I might be a little out of my depth, but she brilliantly guides me through how to be more sustainable in my fashion choices, both environmentally and socially. She talks about her recent book 'Loved Clothes Last', as well as giving us ideas about how to research our shopping choices before we buy, and how to easily get into the habit of rewearing and repairing our clothes.
Orsola is leading us into a 'Fashion Revolution', and I for one, am on board.
