Dressed: The History of Fashion
Arts:Fashion & Beauty
This week we are joined by Rachel Slade to discuss her book Making It In America which examines the story of the company American Roots which has undertaken the nearly impossible task of manufacturing garments 100% made in the U.S.A. Recorded live at the recent 18th Annual Sustainability Business and Design Conference at the Fashion Institute of Technology, our discussion centers around the challenges faced by American makers.
