3. What’s holding ethical fashion back? (Part 2)

In this two-part special, we bring in Sigrid McCarthy of Intent Journal to discuss how ethical and sustainable fashion can win over more consumers. In the final installment, we offer up a buyer's guide to shopping ethical fashion – because there's many ways to shop responsibly which don't involve saving all your pennies for an organic cotton dress.  Sigrid delves into how we can push our favourite brands to be more transparent and gives us tips on how to push back when brands attempt to greenwash. For the designers with small labels listening in – there's a compelling case in here about teaming up with other local labels to streamline production.  Enjoy! And as always leave us your feedback on Insta or Facebook @smartcasualpodcast.
