The podcast that rebels against fashion convention. Catwalk Rebel is the podcast having the difficult questions that fashion needs to face. Hosted by fashion journalist, animal rights activist and author Sascha Camilli, this podcast brings up topics like animal cruelty in fashion, overconsumption, ageism, greenwashing and much more.
Industry changemaker Evelyn Mora discusses starting the world's first sustainable fashion week - Helsinki Fashion Week, which was also the first-ever Fashion Week event to completely ban leather from their catwalks.
"Genuine leather" is still perceived as high-quality - but the reality of leather is anything but. Cruelty to animals and environmental destruction are rife in the leather trade, and the industry contributes to disasters such as global warming and Amazon rainforest deforestation. Plus...did you know that if you wear leather, there's a chance you could be wearing dog or cat skin? Listen to this episode to find out more.
Fashion stylist and slow-fashion advocate Meg Pirie discusses being a stylist in today's fast-paced fashion world, and how she works to educate and encourage a more mindful mentality when it comes to fashion, including holding mending workshops where she teaches people to give their clothes new life. Plus: what is circular fashion?
