A case for vegan fast fashion?

Fashion + Veganism, No Comments
According to the Vegan Society, the UK launched more vegan products than any other nation in 2018, making it the biggest food trend of that year. And it continues to grow. Down every aisle of the supermarket, you see vegan alternatives. What once was one small shelf in the refrigerated aisle, now has a whole section to itself. It is estimated that the meat-free market in the UK will grow to £658m in 2021, which is a huge increase from 2016.

Stomp your way into sustainable fashion

Fashion + Veganism, No Comments
This September, Extinction Rebellion will attempt to shut down London Fashion Week in a bid to raise awareness of the environmental destruction caused by the fashion industry. They have written to the British Fashion Council asking that it be cancelled, adding “We have disruptive actions planned during LFW and we will be ending LFW with a funeral finale”.

Influence & Fakery

Fashion & Climate Emergency, No Comments
XR successfully pressured the UK parliament into declaring a “climate emergency”- a definition backed by leading scientists. XR advocates for drastic reductions in consumption and the fostering of a regenerative culture in all aspects of life. It is generally accepted that reaching zero net greenhouse gas emissions will require far-reaching changes in human activity, which in fashion terms includes changing both the way we produce clothes and how we consume them. We know that reducing our fashion footprint is a critical step that needs to be taken to reduce carbon emissions, so why do we find it so difficult to give up our ASOS addictions in favour of more ethical practices?
