Serge Gnabry vom FC Bayern München sagt: Diesen Typen – den müsst ihr kennenlernen. Und hier ist dieser Typ: Danny Williams, früher Fußballstars, heute Unternehmer und Inhaber vom Fashion-Brand „Beautiful Struggles“. Er hat erlebt, was Spitzensportler gern verdrängen: Nämlich was passiert, wenn du dich schwer verletzt und alle Träume zerbrechen. Danny hat nicht damit gestruggelt – sondern seine eigene Fashion-Brand gegründet. Und Beautfiful Struggles genannt. Weil in jedem Struggle auch die Chance auf etwas Schönes liegt, wie er heute sagt. Wofür Serge Gnabry ihn feiert: für die krasse Karriere, die er nach seiner Karriere gemacht hat. Und für seinen unfassbar coolen Style. Danny hat eine Bilderbuch-Karriere gemacht: Bundesliga, Premier League in England, der Traum eines jeden Fußballprofis. Als Deutsch-Amerikaner wird er Kapitän der US-Nationalmannschaft. Aber dann kommen immer mehr Verletzungen. Knie kaputt, Knöchel kaputt, da ist er gerade mal 30 Jahre alt. Seine Entscheidung: Er macht seinen Style zum neuen Beruf. Er entwirft drei Shirts. Fußballstar Leroy Sané trägt eines davon, postet es auf Instagram – und verändert damit Dannys Welt. Heute zeigt er seine Kollektionen bei der Fashion Week in New York. Ich habe Danny jetzt in München getroffen. Im Roomers Hotel. In der Präsidentensuite. Sein Blick auf die Fußball- und Fashionbranche, warum Clubs ihre Spieler bewusst einschränken, was in der Mode-Industrie falsch läuft, sein Mindset und seine wichtigsten Learnings - jetzt hier in Tomorrow.

You're just like problem, bang, problem, bang. You're just like this all the time." "I'd rather invest in those partnerships for my company than pay an attorney on a settlement again."

In this episode, we talk about why slow fashion brands struggle and often close down. Consumers usually go for price over sustainability, which makes it hard for ethical brands to compete with fast fashion. We discuss how advertising and social media drive our constant need for new clothes, and the allure of 'cheap dopamine'—a quick thrill that's addictive but unsustainable. We delve into how our personal mindset and actions are crucial to support slow fashion — it's about buying consciously, aligning purchases with our values, and pushing brands to prioritize sustainability. We also cover recycling challenges and the shared responsibility between individuals and systems.Chapters 00:00 Introduction to the Slow Fashion Recession01:28 Challenges Faced by Slow Fashion Brands06:36 The Need to Decouple Consumption from Fashion08:30 The Role of Advertising and Social Media11:56 The Addictive Nature of Cheap Dopamine16:10 Shifting Mindset and Consumer Behavior23:03 Delaying Purchases: The Power of Saving Up24:12 Brands and Sustainability: Operating from a Slow Fashion Mindset29:26 Government Intervention: Holding Brands Accountable32:58 The Complexity of Recycling and Carbon Footprints33:54 Individual Responsibility and Systemic ChangesMentionsBOF article: https://www.businessoffashion.com/articles/sustainability/whats-behind-the-slow-fashion-recession “Stå af ræset” (Danish podcast about slow living): https://www.dr.dk/lyd/p1/staa-af-raeset-5624728801000 -----------------CONTACT US: sustainthispodcast@gmail.comJOIN OUR PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/SustainThisPodcast SIGNE HANSENYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@UseLess_dkWebsite: https://www.uselesswardrobe.dk/IG: https://www.instagram.com/useless_dk/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@useless_wardrobeCHRISTINA MYCHASYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@ChristinamychasWebsite: https://www.minimalist-ish.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/christina.mychas/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@christina.mychasALYSSA BELTEMPOYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlyssaBeltempoWebsite: https://msbeltempo.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/msbeltempo/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@msbeltempo If you loved this episode please share it on your stories and tag us!

Thayer's personal values of health and environmental responsibility have been the driving force behind Carve Designs' commitment to creating sustainable products. From the outset, Thayer and her team set out to build a brand that reflected their values, including choosing to eat organic food and prioritize health. This ethos naturally extended to the company's approach to clothing production. The company's journey towards sustainability began with small steps, such as opting for organic cotton t-shirts. Over time, Carve Designs expanded its sustainability efforts, aiming to make at least 90% of their collection entirely sustainable. This dedication to sustainability led to the development of swimwear made from recycled plastic bottles, a significant step towards reducing environmental impact. Additionally, Carve Designs has been exploring innovative ways to recycle swimwear, such as transforming used garments into turf pellets for fields, further demonstrating their commitment to environmental responsibility. Thayer's vision for Carve Designs goes beyond just creating sustainable products; it encompasses a holistic approach to sustainability. The company has been proactive in addressing packaging concerns, experimenting with compostable and recycled packaging to minimize waste. By constantly seeking ways to improve and innovate, Carve Designs exemplifies a forward-thinking approach to sustainable fashion. Overall, Carve Designs' focus on sustainability aligns seamlessly with Thayer's personal values of health and environmental responsibility. The company's dedication to creating eco-friendly swimwear and clothing not only reflects their commitment to the environment but also resonates with a growing consumer demand for sustainable fashion options. Through their innovative practices and continuous efforts to reduce their environmental footprint, Carve Designs sets a positive example for the fashion industry and inspires others to prioritize sustainability in their business practices. In the podcast episode, Carve Designs is highlighted for its innovative project to recycle swimwear made from plastic bottles into turf pellets. This initiative aims to reduce waste and promote circular fashion within the industry. By transforming used swimwear into turf pellets, Carve Designs is taking a proactive step towards sustainability and environmental conservation. This process not only helps repurpose materials that would otherwise end up in landfills but also contributes to the creation of a more sustainable fashion cycle. The company's commitment to finding creative solutions for recycling swimwear showcases their dedication to minimizing their environmental impact and embracing a circular economy model. This forward-thinking approach aligns with the growing trend in the fashion industry towards more sustainable practices and highlights Carve Designs' leadership in promoting eco-friendly initiatives. Thayer Sylvester, the CEO of Carve Designs, not only focuses on creating sustainable swimwear and clothing but also emphasizes the importance of protecting the ocean by reducing litter on beaches and avoiding harmful chemicals in sunscreens. During the podcast episode, Thayer mentioned that she regularly picks up litter on the beach while walking her dog, highlighting the need for local communities to participate in beach cleanups. This hands-on approach to reducing litter directly contributes to keeping the ocean clean and safe for marine life. Additionally, Thayer discussed the detrimental effects of certain chemicals found in sunscreens on coral reefs. She highlighted the importance of using reef-safe, mineral-based sunscreens to protect both human health and the marine environment. Thayer's advocacy for using environmentally friendly sunscreens aligns with the growing awareness of the harmful impacts of chemical sunscreens on coral reefs, as seen in places like Hawaii where certain chemicals have been banned to protect the reefs. By promoting beach cleanups and advocating for the use of reef-safe sunscreens, Thayer Sylvester demonstrates a holistic approach to ocean protection through both direct action and consumer choices. Her commitment to sustainability extends beyond just the products her company creates, showing a genuine dedication to preserving the health and beauty of the ocean ecosystem.
