About this listen
In this episode, we unpick the problems inherent in fast fashion and explore societal and regulatory responses to creating a more a sustainable industry. We examine the role of social media in driving consumption, ponder on the gender divide that makes preloved apparel more attractive to women and hear about new EU policies that will move the industry into the circular economy system.
