#78 Fashion has power says Peri Drysdale of Untouched World

  • Summary

  • A true trailblazer, Untouched World founder Peri Drysdale was shocked by the environmental degradation she was seeing. Determined to do things differently, she launched her clothing brand in 1981. It was called Snowy Peak after the family farm she grew up on and ever since, she's been building a clothing brand that does business in a completely different, sustainable way.

    Hear Peri talk about...

    • Why naivete is an entrepreneur's superpower
    • How she was shamed for not being satisfied with being a stay-at-home mum
    • Her path from nursing to retail
    • How she started off selling unlabelled mittens without thumbs
    • The tough times for the business when her house was literally on the line
    • How she got global leaders including Bill Clinton wearing Untouched World garments
    • Her frustration with the contamination of microfibers
    • Why recycling plastics into clothing is not the answer
    • How the B Corp logo has given her business traction overseas

    Check it out! And get inspired.
