Taylor Zakhar Perez on the Power of Influence

Woolmark's new ambassador Taylor Zakhar Perez is a rising Hollywood star known for his leading man roles. You might recognise him from a certain rom com that we're not mentioning here (in respect of the actors' strike), or his role in a royal drama based on a cult book (again, not going there). Maybe you know his Paris fashion week looks - snaps of him emerging shirtless from his car outside the Prada’s menswear show went viral in June.

But whether you’re one of his 4.7 million Instagram followers, or discovering his work for the first time here, there's no denying Taylor's charm. He's smart, down to earth, generous with his time and endlessly curious, and we love that he was up for a conversation about how to use influence for good.

In this conversation, we discuss the risks and rewards of daring to talk about sustainability when you're known for something else, why more famous names get involved in climate activism it rewear their clothes, and how this former competitive swimmer became a supply chain nerd. For Taylor, if he’s going to work with a brand, he wants to see what goes on behind the scenes. More of that please!
