    Technology and Fashion: Putting Sustainability in Style

    December 1, 2020 /

    Beginning a new year offers us the chance to reflect on the past, and inevitably raises questions about what the future will hold. So, as we make our way into 2021, it is important to look at the crucial changes that are needed in the world of fashion. It’s no secret that, as one of the leading polluters on the planet and being responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions, serious changes are needed to make the fashion industry more sustainable. So, from vegan leather to 3D body scanning, here’s a look at three ways that technology and fashion can generate a greener future for the industry. Changing the fabric…

    Vegan fashion is here to slay

    Words by Rachel LamarcheInstagram // Twitter // Web Rachel Lamarche M.A. is a Doctoral student within the RMIT School of Fashion and Textiles examining the relationship between Veganism and Fashion. Rachel is also the founder of the Vegan Women’s Collective and hosts its eponymous podcast on which she interviews entrepreneurs and activists. One would have to be living under a rock not to notice the recent explosion in the release and uptake of fashion products with vegan certifications. Google trends reflect that the interest in ‘veganism’ increased seven-fold in the five years between 2014 and 2019. In May 2019, it was also estimated by UK food retailer Sainsbury’s in its ‘Future of…

    Vegan Fashion: Draw your own line

    November 18, 2019
    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.

I’ve also changed a lot since then. Particularly regarding fashion. I’ve become more conscious about how I choose to dress and I have tried to minimise my effect on the environment.  But back in 2015 when I first went vegan I remember really having no trouble at all trying to find vegan footwear. My go-to shops were the likes of New Look, Topshop and River Island, all of which had plenty of vegan footwear on offer;…

    Vegan Fashion: Draw your own line

    November 18, 2019 /

    Words by Karen Bryony Rose The Mainstream It’s safe to say that veganism is no longer niche. Gone are the times when buying vegan food involved trips to obscure shops, where even then the range was limited.  These days supermarket shelves are full of plant-based fare and vegan-friendly alternatives.  Although I don’t follow a fully vegan diet, there are days when I realise that all of my meals have been vegan without really trying. It seems easy to do since I enjoy cooking with plant-based ingredients.  Where vegan fashion is concerned, however, it’s safe to say that many brands have been slower on the uptake. And personally, vegan-friendly fashion hasn’t…

    Without a doubt, the rise of vegan fashion is huge. Major brands, such as Gucci, Versace and Chanel, have pledged to no longer use real fur. This contributed to the drop-in sales of women’s fur by 41% in the UK alone, in 2018. Personally, I have never owned real fur, or real leather products. Aside from how expensive they are, I was always fully aware that they were made from animals and that to me never felt right.  In terms of faux fur and leather, of course I think these are much better, and ethical, than killing animals. However, as I’ve began to research into the industry further, I’ve realised…

    Rather go naked than wear fur

    November 4, 2019 /

    Written by Felicia RobertsInstagram: @felicialeaah Once upon a time people wore animal products because that was all they had to work with, later mink coats and fox fur scarves indicated wealth and status, and even now we tap around the office in pony skin mules to attract looks of approval from our colleagues. Society’s love of furry fashion has always told a story of who we are, where we come from and who we want to be. How has that changed through the ages, and how do we see fashion and animals today? Fur in fashion has proved to be a strong trend throughout history as it showed status and…

    We all love to feel like we’re doing our bit for the environment and for some, that means going vegan. However, while we put thought into what we put on our plates, do any of us stop to think about the things we wear?
