Seattle's Fast Fashion (https://themasonryseattle.com/fast-fashion/) has built a reputation for modern, forward-looking IPAs and hop-focused lagers, and the characterful brewery and taproom in SoDo expresses the eclectic interests and aesthetic taste of founder Matt Storm. It's a funhouse of sorts—a bit like drinking in a thrift store full of budget mid-century furniture, stocked with kitsch that spans the past six decades. It's busy and not necessarily thematically consistent—much like the beers the brewery makes—but it's different and unique. You will not confuse it with another brewery. Over the past half-decade, the beer itself has developed from quick hits of new hazy IPAs filled with the coolest names in hops, to a more diverse lineup of IPAs and lagers—still hop forward and immaculately crafted. Under head brewer Stefano Annicharico, they've found a way to make beer that keeps the baseball game-day crowd happy, while also continuing to explore the possibilities in contemporary beer styles. In this episode, Storm and Annichiarico discuss: how Anchovy hops came to have such a unique name brewing drinkable, semi-dry hazy IPA with heavy adjunct loads building acidity in the mash to promote drinkability despite later dry-hop additions that raise the pH boiling hops in hazy IPA with 20-minute additions for more longevity in package lowering whirlpool hop amounts and pushing higher loads in post-fermentation dry hops finding bits of distinct character in hops such as Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and NZ Cascade (aka Taiheke) avoiding excessive rousing to limit hop burn using New Zealand hops in modern hoppy lager And more.

Laura Toleano, directrice générale de Zalando France, s'exprime sur les enjeux liés à la fast-fashion, un secteur cherchant à s'installer dans des espaces grand public. Ce glissement n'est pas sans conséquences : certaines enseignes, comme Disney, préfèrent renoncer à passer Noël au BHV, à Paris, afin d'éviter toute association avec des marques comme Shein.

In der Stadt gibt es sie in fast jedem Quartier: die Altkleider-Container. Und ähnlich wie beim Altglas, steht auch bei den Altkleider-Sammelstellen oftmals viel um den eigentlichen Container herum. Manchmal überlaufen sie völlig. Denn es werden immer mehr Kleider gespendet. Doch die Qualität der Kleidung nimmt ab. Und in den Containern landen auch häufig Sachen, die dort eigentlich gar nicht hineingehörten.Das Altkleidersystem war einmal ein karitatives Erfolgsmodell. Jetzt stösst es an seine Grenzen und droht, zusammenzubrechen. Davor warnen die grossen Sammelfirmen wie Tell-Tex oder Texaid.Wie konnte es soweit kommen? Soll man überhaupt noch Kleider spenden? Wenn ja: welche? Und kommt jetzt die grosse Recyclingrevolution? Diese und weitere Fragen beantwortet Jacqueline Büchi, Leiterin des Ressorts Reportagen & Storytelling in einer neuen Folge des täglichen Podcast «Apropos».Die Folgen von Fast-Fashion und Online-ShoppingDer Kleiderberg wächst – und niemand weiss wohin damit: «Das System steht vor dem Kollaps»Altkleider sind immer öfter Abfall statt Spende. 5 Wege zur Recycling-WendeDiese Modemarken wollen eine Recyclingabgabe für Kleider einführenSo landen unsere Hemden in der chilenischen Wüste Unser Tagi-Spezialangebot für Podcast-Hörer:innen: tagiabo.chHabt ihr Feedback, Ideen oder Kritik zu «Apropos»?

In an era of overseas production, one family-owned Alabama company is opting out of the race to the bottom and bringing back the heritage of high-quality American-made linens. Red Land Cotton Founder Anna Brakefield talks about building a fully American-made, farm-to-home textile business. She discusses how her family vertically integrated their Alabama cotton farm to control production from field to finished bedding, overcoming supply chain challenges and investing in U.S. manufacturing. Anna also reflects on the importance of keeping textile jobs in America, the impact of local economic revitalization, and how Red Land Cotton blends craftsmanship, sustainability, and design to prove that quality goods can still be Made in the USA.

Sweater season has arrived for many of us, so let's revisit a favorite episode from last 2023!Dani of Picnicwear joins Amanda to explain why (most) new sweaters are low quality, (near) future garbage (instead of future vintage).  It's a complicated tale of synthetic blends, increasing margin targets, and lower prices.  We'll explain how the fast fashion industry has kept prices low and profits high by swapping out yarns, cutting out details, and making copies of copies, while walking through the design process of most big retailers/brands. We will unpack why it's really difficult to find sweaters made of natural fibers.Amanda will explain how natural fibers aren't the "cure" for the impact of overconsumption.We will give you advice about how to choose the right sweater (hint: read those content labels).Dani will give you advice about how to care for your sweaters properly. We were inspired by Amanda Mull's piece for The Atlantic, Your Sweaters Are Garbage.

She talks about overcoming challenges like COVID-19 and hurricanes, the power of core values, and her belief in consistency and passion as keys to success. Jennifer also discusses leadership lessons, team culture, and how resilience and innovation helped her business grow from a small store to a 13,000-square-foot powerhouse.

They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice.   And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Jennifer Ann Johnson, the hardest thing in growing a small business is “staying the course.” She explains that it's easy to get distracted by competitors or trends, but true growth comes from staying focused, keeping your blinders on, and competing only with yourself. Her mindset is all about perseverance — focusing on your own path and goals rather than comparing yourself to others. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Jennifer Ann Johnson's favorite business book that has helped her the most is “Begin With We” by Kyle McDowell. She loves it because it focuses on company culture and leadership, emphasizing how standing shoulder-to-shoulder with your employees—rather than above them—creates stronger teams and a more successful business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Jennifer Ann Johnson recommends exploring The Confident Entrepreneur, her own podcast focused on leadership, growth, and confidence for business owners. She also provides valuable free tools and resources on her website to help entrepreneurs thrive. Beyond her work, she suggests tuning into other insightful shows like The Small Business Growth Podcast, The How of Business, and Masters of Scale by Reid Hoffman — all offering practical lessons on scaling, marketing, and managing small businesses effectively. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Jennifer Ann Johnson recommends using The Confident Entrepreneur Podcast and her online resources as powerful tools for small business growth. Through her podcast, she shares real-world stories, leadership lessons, and actionable strategies on marketing, consistency, and scaling a business. Her website also offers free resources, coaching, and blogs that help entrepreneurs strengthen their mindset, improve operations, and build confidence while avoiding common business pitfalls. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Jennifer Ann Johnson's advice to herself on day one of starting out in business would be simple yet powerful — “You can do hard things.” She believes entrepreneurship is full of challenges, but success comes from trusting your abilities, facing obstacles head-on, and staying resilient no matter how tough things get.

In vielen Städten werden Altkleidercontainer abgebaut, weil sie sich finanziell nicht mehr lohnen. Grund ist vor allem die schlechte Qualität der Kleidung. Was man am besten mit den aussortierten Klamotten machen sollte.

Let's define the problem.  Is there a plastic iceberg in the ocean? No, of course not. Micro plastics are invisible.

Raglan's Xtreme Zero waste recyling centre is banning cast-offs from the China based fast fashion giant Shein. It says the poor quality and the sheer volumme Shein garments mean its a real challenge to sell them in their recycle retail store. Shein clothes tend to be made from synthetic fabrics, and testing has shown some contain harmful chemical like formaldehyde and are sold for extremely low prices. It's also alleged some Shein staff are working 75 hour weeks and getting just one day off a month. Jemma Hovelmeier from Xtreme Zero Waste in Raglan spoke to Lisa Owen.

Can circular fashion beat fast fashion? In this episode, we sit down with Steve Dool, Senior Director, Brand & Creative at Depop, to explore how the platform is reshaping the way we shop, sell, and think about fashion.But before we dive into Depop's bold mission, we rewind to Steve's own journey, from writing for GQ and The New York Times to navigating career pivots that led him to the forefront of fashion and tech. He shares the values and personal moments that shaped his leadership style and creative lens.Together, we unpack the rise of secondhand fashion as a cultural force, the fall of traditional PR and Media gatekeeping, and how Gen Z and creators are rewriting the rules of influence. Whether you're a marketer, founder, or fashion lover, this conversation is filled with insights on building brands with meaning, and why the future of fashion is circular.

Au Ghana, les décharges de vêtements provenant de l'Europe polluent l'environnement. Plus de 120 000 tonnes sont exportées chaque année. Le pays est le deuxième marché d'export de vêtements usagés après l'Asie. De plus en plus de ces habits ne peuvent être vendus. Ils finissent jetés, souvent dans la nature ghanéenne ou dans des décharges informelles, faute d'infrastructures suffisantes pour traiter un afflux de déchets croissant.

Fashion is one of the world's most polluting industries

Climate is something that we know people care about. It’s something I think a lot of us have anxiety about and feel somewhat helpless around. It’s also not usually the most sexy or humorous topic; but today’s guest has somehow found the ability to interconnect all of those things in her brand new book “Nature’s last dance”. Today we are joined by Natalie Kyriacou! Natalie is an award-winning environmentalist, writer, public speaker, and company director. She was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia and the Forbes 30 Under 30 honour for her services to wildlife and environmental conservation in 2018. Today we wanted to speak about our environmental footprint, some misunderstandings in how we view nature, and whether we are completely f*cked when it comes to climate. But we actually start this chat by Nat telling us that it’s likely the current prime minister thinks she vaginal steams… We chat: Why younger generations seem to be more passionate about climate change and nature destruction The big organisations and systems that point the finger and tell you to use a reusable cup The fashion industry’s impact on our environment Conspicuous consumption - the peacocking of social status Are the damages to our environment too far gone to ‘correct course’? How climate disasters disproportionately affect women What we can all do to help “Greenwashing” and being brand aware Why the price of chocolate is going to skyrocket because of nature Animals and the cute curse The ejaculation helmet Bonobos and their giant clits You can get a copy of Nature’s Last Dance Follow Nat on Instagram Join her on Tiktok You can watch us on Youtube Find us on Instagram Join us on tiktok Or join the Facebook Discussion Group Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because WE LOVE LOVE!

Fast fashion has taken over the fashion industry, but is less expensive, trendy clothing really worth the purchase? Those who say to “stop” argue fast fashion harms the environment in many ways and exploits workers in countries with lax regulations. Those who say “keep shopping” argue it's up to shoppers to choose, as fast fashion offers affordable options, supports jobs, and boosts local economies.

Fashion is a massive $1.8 Trillion industry. Within that two tales unfold: one of quality, timelessness and individualized expression, and another of wastefulness, shame and pride. On this episode of Looking Outside, we explore how fast fashion competes with slow fashion; where craftsmanship, carefulness and scarcity supersede fleeting trends. For this we're joined by French fashion designer and YouTuber Justine Leconte. To her one million viewers around the world, Justine emphasizes the importance of choosing what we buy carefully. But not necessarily at the expense of style, which everyone has the ability to harness, particularly when we tailor fashion to us. ----------More:Looking Outside podcast www.looking-outside.comConnect with host, Jo Lepore on LinkedIn & X & jolepore.comLearn more about Justine Leconte & her labelFollow Justine on YouTube, Pinterest & TikTokCheck out Justine's guide for Timelines StyleRequest Justine's Fast Fashion BlacklistWatch 5 myths that fast fashion brands want you to believe----------⭐ Follow & rate the show - it makes a difference!----------Looking Outside is a podcast exploring fresh perspectives of familiar topics.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta sits down with Bree McKeen, founder of Evelyn & Bobbie, the brand rewriting the rules of bras with comfort, science, and confidence at the core. For decades, bras have been built on outdated designs that cause pain, poor posture, and even body dysmorphia. Bree is here to change that.Coming from a background in finance and healthcare investing, Bree didn't expect to end up in fashion. But as a woman wearing a 34G bra through long workdays, she knew the frustration firsthand—rigid underwires, digging straps, and sizing chaos that never seemed to fit. Instead of blaming her body, Bree questioned why bras hadn't evolved in nearly a century. That question sparked a revolution.At Evelyn & Bobbie, bras are reengineered for real bodies, not flat blueprints. With input from over 270 fit models, flexible sizing, and adaptive fabrics developed with top athletic manufacturers, their designs mold to your shape instead of fighting it. No underwires, no shame—just support that feels like a second skin.But this isn't just about comfort. Evelyn & Bobbie bras are trusted by surgeons for post-surgical recovery, praised for posture-friendly design, and cherished by women rediscovering confidence after years of pain and poor fit. Their message is bold and simple: your body is perfect—bras are the problem. Tune in to hear how Bree McKeen and Evelyn & Bobbie are transforming an everyday essential into a tool for health, healing, and empowerment.To learn more about Evelyn & Bobbie visit their website and social media.CHAPTERS:(0:02) Introduction & Fast Fashion(0:41) Meet Bree McKeen, Founder of Evelyn and Bobbie(1:01) Bree's Background & Inspiration(2:03) The Struggles of Finding a Comfortable Bra(3:15) Health Impacts & Posture Issues(5:00) Outdated Bra Design & Industry Standards(6:35) Sizing Struggles & Body Image(8:18) The Flaws in Conventional Bra Construction(11:17) Designing Bras That Adapt to Women's Bodies(13:00) Body Dysmorphia & Fashion's Role(16:01) Evelyn & Bobbie's Philosophy & Fit ModelsPlease fill out this survey to give us feedback on the show!Don't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!

From the ambitious beginnings of Guccio Gucci to the tragic murder of Maurizio Gucci. We're not hitting play on an old run of ‘Days of our Lives', because this is the real story of legacy, scandals and murder. We are recounting the pivotal roles played by Aldo and Rodolfo Gucci, the transformative under Tom Ford, and how the murder orchestrated by Patrizia Reggiani marked a turning point for the luxury brand. The story of the Gucci family is more than the sum of its parts, offering a window into the complexities of legacy, the price of ambition, and the true story behind the headlines.

Miroslav Volf confronts Schopenhauer's pessimism and unquenchable thirst with a vision of love that affirms the world.“Unquenchable thirst makes for ceaseless pain. This befits our nature as objectification of the ceaseless and aimless will at the heart of reality. ... For Schopenhauer, the pleasure of satisfaction are the lights of fireflies in the night of life's suffering. These four claims taken together make pain the primordial, universal, and unalterable state of human lives.”In the second installment of his 2025 Gifford Lectures, Miroslav Volf examines the 19th-century philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer's radical rejection of the world. Through Schopenhauer's metaphysics of blind will and insatiable desire, Volf draws out the philosopher's haunting pessimism and hatred for existence itself. But Schopenhauer's rejection of the world—rooted in disappointed love—is not just a historical curiosity; Volf shows how our modern consumerist cravings mirror Schopenhauer's vision of unquenchable thirst and fleeting satisfaction. In response, Volf offers a theological and philosophical critique grounded in three kinds of love—epithumic (appetitive), erotic (appreciative), and agapic (self-giving)—arguing that agape love must be central in our relationship to the world. “Everything is a means, but nothing satisfies,” Volf warns, unless we reorder our loves. This second lecture challenges listeners to reconsider what it means to live in and love a world full of suffering—without abandoning its goodness.Episode Highlights“Unquenchable thirst makes for ceaseless pain. This befits our nature as objectification of the ceaseless and aimless will at the heart of reality.”“Whether we love ice cream or sex or God, we are often merely seeking to slake our thirst.”“If we long for what we have, what we have never ceases to satisfy.”“A better version is available—for whatever reason, it is not good enough. And we discard it. This is micro-rejection of the world.”“Those who love agape refuse to act as if they were the midpoint of their world.”Helpful Links and ResourcesThe World as Will and Representation by Arthur SchopenhauerParadiso by Dante AlighieriVictor Hugo's Les MisérablesA Brief for the Defense by Jack GilbertShow NotesSchopenhauer's pessimism as rooted in disappointed love of the worldGod's declaration in Genesis—“very good”—contrasted with Schopenhauer's “nothing is good”Job's suffering as a theological counterpoint to Schopenhauer's metaphysical despairHuman desire framed as unquenchable thirst: pain, boredom, and fleeting satisfactionSchopenhauer's diagnosis: we swing endlessly between pain and boredomThree kinds of love introduced: epithumic (appetite), erotic (appreciation), agapic (affirmation)Schopenhauer's exclusive emphasis on appetite—no place for appreciation or unconditional loveModern consumer culture mirrors Schopenhauer's account: desiring to desire, never satisfiedFast fashion, disposability, and market-induced obsolescence as symptoms of world-negation“We long for what we have” vs. “we discard the world”Luther's critique: “suck God's blood”—epithumic relation to GodAgape love: affirming the other, even when undeserving or diminishedErotic love: savoring the intrinsic worth of things, not just their utilityThe fleetingness of joy and comparison's corrosion of valueModern desire as invasive, subliminally shaped by market competitionDenigration of what is in favor of what could be—a pathology of dissatisfactionConsumerism as massive “micro-rejection” of the worldVolf's call to reorder our loves toward appreciation and unconditional affirmationTheology and metaphysics reframe suffering not as a reason to curse the world, but to love it betterPreview of next lecture: Nietzsche, joy, and the affirmation of all existenceProduction NotesThis podcast featured Miroslav VolfEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Taylor Craig and Macie BridgeA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/giveSpecial thanks to Dr. Paul Nimmo, Paula Duncan, and the media team at the University of Aberdeen.

What if the most toxic thing in your home isn't a chemical—but a mindset? Clean living advocate and first-time author Lindsay Dahl returns to unpack the nuanced middle ground of wellness, environmental health, and personal agency. Together, we explore the emotional toll of trying to “do it all right,” the dangers of black-and-white thinking in the age of social media, and why real change takes both individual action and systemic accountability. We talk spatulas and seed oils, fast fashion and flame retardants, fear and freedom—and why being a pragmatist in today's digital landscape is both radical and necessary. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by wellness culture or simply want to think more critically about what's in your home and how it gets there, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and a call to thoughtful action. 0:00 | Framing the Problem with Balance 2:20 | Education, Policy, and the Role of Media 5:40 | Health vs. Science: A Cultural Disconnect 8:06 | Control, Consumerism, and Systemic Change 11:25 | Fast Fashion as a Microcosm 14:12 | Inside “Cleaning House”: Book Preview 18:41 | The Cost of Speaking Up 23:38 | Reclaiming Community and Dialogue 26:25 | Closing and Call to Action Find Lindsay: lindsaydahl.com instagram.com/lindsay_dahl linkedin.com/in/lindsay-dahl-3617076 Pre-order Lindsay's book "Cleaning House: The Fight to Rid Our Homes of Toxic Chemicals" almost anywhere books are sold, releases 8/5/25 Find Stacy: realeverything.com instagram.com/realstacytoth missionmakersart.com Learn more about your ad choices.

For years, American consumers have been able to spend next to nothing on the latest fashion trends, thanks in large part to Chinese clothing companies like Shein and Temu. These businesses have long used a loophole to send millions of packages a day into the U.S. from China tax-free.Now, President Trump is closing that loophole, even as he de-escalates his larger trade war with China, and prices are going up.Meaghan Tobin, who covers business and technology in Asia, discusses whether this might be the end for fast fashion.Guest: Meaghan Tobin, a correspondent for The New York Times, covering business and technology in Asia.Background readingMeaghan Tobin and Agnes Chang write about President Trump's latest changes to taxes on small packages from China.Meaghan Tobin explains how a U.S. tax loophole supercharged China's exports.For more information on today's episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily.
