NEONYT PODCAST

The environmental balance of our favourite piece of clothing, our jeans, is enormous: water-intensive cotton production, the use of toxic chemicals, sandblasting or bleaching - these are just some of the keywords when it comes to denim production. How can we turn dirty denim back to an everybody's darling again? This is what our Neonyt #Prepeek Panel discussion "Reinventing Denim" by ISKO with Kim Gerlach, Rosey Cortazzi & Sam Trotman (ISKO) and blogger and fashion designer Lina Mayorga (@fashionfabnews) was all about in January.

What does "sharing economy" exactly mean? It can mean a lot, from rental to repair services, from circular processes to non-linear solutions.

"Live your concept, focus on your core values, look for solutions," says Ashley Marc Hovelle (Often). He is one of the fashion designers supported by the German Sustain Concept. The German scholarship programme by Fashion Council Germany is dedicated to supporting young fashion brands in the field of sustainable design. At the fashionsustain conference in January, Ashley spoke with Björn Kubeja (Working Title), who is also supported by FCG, and Marte Hentschel (sqetch) about how to successfully build and internationalize a business model.

Wie verbreitet man seine Botschaft erfolgreich – als nachhaltiges Fashion Brand, Medium, Influencer oder Aktivist?
