Did you also learn to sew through a monthly sewing series in your country too? Make it Easy was a publication Tracey used to sew as a teenager, with her mother's help.  After taking part in Me Made May, Tracey is rethinking style and the type of clothes she will sew in the future.

I caught up with iServalan at Blink Friction HQ to find out about the new collection of reclaimed art and fashion.In a world dominated by fast fashion, where mass production often drowns individuality, iServalan is carving out a bold and rebellious path. An artist, musician, and designer, iServalan is teaming up with Blink Friction on a groundbreaking, edgy upcycled clothing collection. Their mission? To create one-of-a-kind wearable art while championing sustainability, supporting musicians, and challenging conventional fashion norms.I sat down with iServalan to discuss their creative process, inspiration, and vision for the future of upcycled fashion.iServalan, your work sits at the intersection of fashion, art, and music. What inspired you to take this direction?I've always been drawn to uniqueness—whether in music, fashion, or visual art. As a musician, I know how crucial it is to have clothing that works on stage but also feels authentic on the street. I'm inspired by what I find; the material itself dictates what I create. Every piece is an experiment, a transformation. I ask: What can stay? Is it durable? What can I do with this fabric? That process is what keeps me engaged.At the same time, I'm driven by the idea of egalitarianism. On the street, people should be equal while still expressing themselves. My pieces embrace that philosophy—raw, rebellious, but also functional and inclusive.  A massive drive for me was the idea that clothes should get better with wear. We all love an old pair of Levis, or an old leather jacket. Why shouldn't clothes improve with age, with wearing, and with laundering? How was I going to achieve that goal? Well, hand stitching that shows or becomes the point, repairs that are a central part of the design, and a distressed colour pallet are just a few of the things I decided to embrace.Your collaboration with Blink Friction is gaining attention. Can you tell us more about it?Absolutely. Blink Friction is the perfect platform for my upcycled clothing because they share my passion for sustainability and individuality. Every item I make is exclusive to them. We don't do mass production; instead, we focus on meticulously crafted, unique designs that blend punk, hip-hop, glam rock, and utilitarian aesthetics.And it's more than just fashion—10% of our proceeds go to the Help Musicians charity and towards sponsoring other music projects. We want to reinvest in the creative community and give back to the artists who inspire us.Let's talk about the process. How do you transform discarded materials into statement fashion?It's labour-intensive, but I love it. I work with a mix of hand and machine stitching because some things just can't be done on a machine. I hand-dye, bleach, and paint every piece myself. Some take weeks to make, others come together in a few days. I often have multiple projects running at once, waiting for the right find to complete them.Washing and sanitizing are also a huge part of the process—people don't always realize how time-consuming that step is. I even work with discarded fast fashion pieces that are now showing up increasingly in recycling centres. Some of that material is very tricky to work with, but I don't turn it away. If I can reinvent it, why let it go to waste? It is possible to make circular fashion out of fast fashion but you have to be prepared to embrace some of its advantages.Your designs are edgy, but they also feel deeply personal. Do you see them as wearable art?100%. Every piece is an investment, a work of art with a story. They're not just clothes; they're statements. They challenge wastefulness, celebrate individuality, and push against the idea that fashion has to be disposable.I'm hoping to connect with retailers who share this ethos—boutiques or concept stores that appreciate upcycled fashion as more than just a trend. And, of course, I want to reach people worldwide who see the value in owning something no one else has.What's next for you and Blink Friction?More innovation, more collaborations, and hopefully, expanding the reach of upcycled fashion. I want to continue exploring what's possible with reclaimed materials and push the boundaries of what sustainable fashion can be. And of course, keep supporting musicians in the process. Final question—what's the one thing that ties all your pieces together?Obviously, the hand-drawn logo is on every item, sometimes small, sometimes an allover pattern. The eye means a lot to me as an artist. Modern citizens are drowning in this high-octane trajectory driven by technology and capitalism. I want everyone to calm down and look around at how great nature is, life, art, music, everything.But apart from the eye, the drive to make something real and honest, with compassion, is central to the whole Blink Friction project. I want to make something raw, expressive, and built to last. Every stitch, every dye, every patch has a purpose. That's what makes each piece special.As the world slowly wakes up to the importance of sustainability, artists like iServalan are leading the charge—not just with words, but with action. Their work with Blink Friction is more than just fashion; it's a movement, a rebellion against waste, and a celebration of individuality.If you're looking for clothing that tells a story, stands out, and supports a greater cause, keep an eye on iServalan's evolving collection. Because in the end, fashion should be more than just something you wear—it should be something you believe in.Follow iServalan & Blink Frictionhttps://www.iservalan.com/https://www.youtube.com/@taletellerclub

The value of time in the creative process | Sister Saleha, Upcycled Cafe by Radio Islam

On the coastal island of Lamu, off Kenya's east coast, workers are turning plastic waste into furniture, even boats. Lamu is contending with mounds of plastic waste—some washed up on its beaches, others created by its own population. “We are collecting the waste plastic around Lamu archipelago, and we process those ones to make boats, furniture, and also doing a lot of research on what we can do with the plastic,” explains Ali Skanda, co-founder of the Flipflopi Project, an NGO founded in 2016. The Flipflopi Project receives grants from other NGOs which they then use to buy plastic waste from locals. After it arrives at their facility, workers sort it into different types and colors. It's then crushed, washed, dried, melted, then molded into different colors, shapes and sizes. “After pre-sorting, we have our sorters, and they categorize into different types and colors. So, they keep plastic into types and colors, separately,” explains Skanda. From there, plastic waste is upcycled into furniture and dhow boats. But Skanda says recycling also comes with challenges. He says nowadays, plastic manufacturers are adding additives to plastics, which makes it more difficult to recycle. Elsewhere, some plastics may be degraded by the sun and lose quality. Since 2019, the NGO has been sailing Flipflopi, claimed to be the world's first recycled plastic sailing dhow. They've gone on expeditions, including sailing from the Indian Ocean to Lake Victoria, and have launched a further two boats made using recycled plastic waste. “We are doing this just for the world to understand that plastic is not waste,” says Skanda. “We can add value and make something like furniture, things like this. And more others, we are making dhows.” Each day, the equivalent of 2,000 garbage trucks full of plastic are dumped into the world's oceans, rivers and lakes, according to the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). People are increasingly breathing, eating and drinking tiny plastic particles. Plastic production continues to ramp up globally and is projected to double or triple by 2050 if nothing changes.  This article was provided by The Associated Press. 

In this episode, we dive into the prominent role of circularity in the new B Corp standards with Nellie Cohen, creator of Patagonia's Worn Wear project, and Dan Kurzrock, CEO of Upcycled Foods. Nellie and Dan share strategies for transforming waste into value across diverse industries like textiles and food. We also highlight how smaller companies and service-based businesses can integrate circularity more deeply into their operations.

Marc Wandler, the co-founder of Susgrainable, shares his journey of turning beer waste into sustainable flour and baked goods. He started the business as a student project and quickly learned from rapid feedback cycles. By sampling the product at farmers markets and cafes, he honed in on his target market and gained valuable customer feedback. He also leveraged media opportunities to generate buzz and attract customers. However, the COVID-19 pandemic posed challenges, and Marc had to adapt by observing the market and focusing on food service partnerships. Despite the difficulties, he remained committed to his vision and continued to innovate. Susgrainable was born out of the university and focused on learning about consumer packaged goods and non-dilutive funding opportunities. They secured non-dilutive money to build the foundation of the business and focused on scaling their flower production. They conducted A/B tests and gathered consumer feedback to inform their product development and packaging decisions. They also explored collaborations and partnerships to expand their impact. The next six months will be focused on managing risks, navigating potential partnerships and investments, and continuing to build towards their vision of creating impact through sustainability.

The Startup Pavilion at the Institute of Food Technologists' annual Food Improved by Research Science and Technology (IFT FIRST) in Chicago earlier this month featured cutting-edge solutions to some of the most pressing challenges facing the food system, including food safety, nutrition security, climate change and diet-related chronic disease.

This week I spoke with Michelle Gabriel an educator, researcher, and sustainability strategist in the fashion space. We met at The Sustainable Fashion Forum back in April as she kicked off the conference with a workshop on policy. Michelle has been involved with the New York Fashion Act and in this episode shares her insight and breaks down the act. Michelle shares her diverse range of experiences in fashion and what lead her to where she is now in education and academia. For anyone not on a linear path with multiple interests who wants to work in fashion you will definitely find comfort and inspiration in hearing her background.I find the New York Fashion Act to be a really exciting piece of legislation as it written in a way that attempts to tackle global issues the entire fashion industry faces on a state level since the fashion economy in New York is one of if not the largest in the world. Whatever component of sustainable fashion you are interested in you can learn something from this episode and the different facets of this bill. More on Michelle!New York Fashion Act Links!The Fashion ActIg: @nsifashion2030Follow Interwoven!Instagram: ⁠@interwovenstories.pod⁠Tiktok: ⁠@interwovenstories⁠Featured intro story:Upcycled jeans by Sadie!Vintage find:Dolce & Gabanna Jacket that Victoria Beckham woreShare your own stories about vintage, thrifted, preloved, secondhand, rental, and any meaningful pieces you have!

Anna Hammond is the Founder and CEO of Matriark Foods, a social impact business on a mission to scale access to healthy food for the benefit of people and the environment. Each year in the USA, roughly 33 million tons of perfectly healthy vegetables never make it to the table. That's a waste of food, water, and greenhouse gasses. It's bad for farmers and the planet. Matriark Foods upcycles farm surplus and fresh-cut remnants into healthy, delicious, low sodium vegetable products for schools, hospitals, food banks and other foodservice.  All Matriark products are Upcycled Certified. Upcycled food is about doing more with less, and elevating all food to its highest and best use. Matriark is also a certified Women-Owned Business (WBE) that mentors and supports other WBEs. It's a fact that despite receiving less than 5% of venture capital,  WBEs outperform  other structures by 63%. In the words of Joan Armatrading, “If women ruled the world, it would be a good thing.” Matriark Foods is a shining example of this. In this episode, we discuss: ●      The issues with our current food system that cause so much food waste while people go hungry. ●      What Upcycled Certified means. ●      How Matriark Foods benefitted from participating in incubators and accelerators. Key Takeaways:  Forging New Paths: Imagine setting out on a journey into uncharted territory, where every step forward demands innovation and resilience. For the most interesting projects with the biggest potential to make an impact, at the start there is no “plug and play”. In order to have a plug and play you need a system to plug into. But when you're creating entirely new ways of doing things across an entire supply chain, you're doing the heavy lifting of creating an entirely new system. While the initial stages will be daunting, each stride forward lays the foundation for a future where, eventually at scale, you will have created a new system that others can plug into—and that new system you forged will enable systemic change making a bigger impact than any one person or organization could ever have on their own. This work of system reinvention takes time, it takes collaboration, and it's essential for fixing the broken systems we're currently relying on that are damaging people and the planet.  Tackling Food Loss and Waste: Food loss (on farms and in supply chains) and waste (at the retail and consumer levels) deprives farmers of income, costs consumers money, and exacerbates biodiversity loss. All while more than 700 million people go hungry worldwide including 44 million Americans (13 million of which are children). America discards more food than any other country, an estimated 30-40% of the entire food supply. Each year that equates to 46 million tons of food, 145 billion meals, and $473 billion lost dollars that were used to grow, transport and dispose of the surplus (which is roughly 2% of U.S. GDP). This wasted food not only doesn't make it to hungry people's mouths, it's also a greenhouse gas footprint equivalent to 4% of total U.S. GHG emissions. All of that of that time, energy, and money for nothing. Matriark's innovative approach to food upscaling offers a triple win: income for farmers and manufacturers, reducing carbon footprints, and enhancing nutritional well-being.  Food as a Gateway: Food is more than nourishment; it's a gateway to connection, grounding, and humanity. We talk about breaking bread with others, as a way to form bonds. And food is literally how we nurture our bodies, so they have the fuel they need to operate in the world. Food is a way to ground, since natural food literally comes from the ground. Food serves as a cornerstone of human experience that ties us all together—but too many people are still tied together by the shared experience of food insecurity.

Kaitlin Mogentale founded Pulp Pantry in 2019 to reduce food waste and increase nutrition using upcycled veggie pulp. She had great initial traction getting accepted into Target's Accelerator, airing on Shark Tank, and launching in major retailers. She found that while consumers say they are interested in sustainable messaging, labeling her product as “pulp” and “upcycled” was turning away potential customers who thought they would taste bad.So in 2024 Kaitlin listened to her customers and rebranded to Trashy, an energetic and edgy brand to attract a new wave of customers.Listen in to hear behind the scenes of her transition.Support her WeFunder Equity Crowdfunding campaignStartup to Scale is a podcast by Foodbevy, an online community to connect emerging food, beverage, and CPG founders to great resources and partners to grow their business.

This week on the podcast, we venture to Germany for an engaging conversation with Philipp Maertens from Taktonik. Taktonik specializes in crafting bags and other products from upcycled army surplus materials. Philipp shares how his fascination with creating was ignited by the discovery of shiny trousers fashioned from airmail bags. We delve into Philipp's unique approach of weaving narratives through the amalgamation of materials sourced from diverse origins, including his process of repurposing metal zips from G-suits. The discussion also explores the rich history of camouflage and the fascinating intricacies behind silk escape maps. We touch upon the power of social media in connecting individuals with shared passions globally and the significance of upcycling highly specific military gear in sustainability efforts. And of course, we couldn't forget to discuss the experience of meeting your idols.You can find  Philip and Taktonik on the web  as taktonik.de and on Instagram as @taktonik  Garmology is by Nick Johannessen.

In world news for kids (and adults!) this week… India sees the grand opening of the new Ram Temple in Ayodhya, but not everyone is happy – we dive deep to explain why. Also, a major discovery is found hidden beneath the Amazon rainforest – not just remains of the Upano people, but – thanks to laser technology – it's discovered they were a vast and sophisticated civilization. And did you have any idea how dirty fast-food fumes can be, never mind posh cooking in big, fancy kitchens too? Well, some clever scientists in Sweden have an innovative solution – the Lepido device – for upcycling food fumes. And in Britain a zoo tries – again – to stop foul-mouthed parrots from creating a naughty pandemonium!

Are you concerned about the environmental and social damage done by food wastage? Then you need to learn about upcycled food, a new trend for upcycled food that's helping to solve these issues. Here's how this trend can benefit your health, the planet, and people around the world.Trying to find an integrative medicine or functional medicine doctor who understands what you're going through?

I'm Josh Cooperman with Convo By Design and this is the first of a 10 part series called Convo By Design presents WestEdge Wednesday's with conversation held at the WestEdge Design Fair in late November, 2023 from Barker Hanger in Santa Monica, California.  This conversation features Moya O'Neill of Moya Living,Nancy Russert of Les Beaux Interiors and Twist Custom, Lenora Aguilar and Judy Davis of Vintage Junktion and moderated by Luxe Magazine's Kelly Phillips Badal. This is a conversation called, Up-Cycled, Recycled, Repurposed, Local and Fabulous; Specifying and Sourcing Locally. The idea here is that design has entered a new era. One that is not defined by beauty or expense alone. We have entered an experiential phase of interior design, landscape design, exteriors and architecture. One that places a greater value on the experience and enjoyment of materiality, objects and usefulness of things as opposed to simply how expensive, luxurious or rare things happen to be.  Thank you for listening to this episode of the podcast. For more, please make sure you are subscribing to the feed and check our IG often for new conversations. This chat was amazing and was held live on the stage designed by Marbe Designs and presented by BR Home. For links to everything associated with this conversation, please check the podcast episode notes accessible from the “podcast” tab from Convo By Design.  Thank you Moya, Judy, Lenora, Nancy and Kelly for your incredible insights, knowledge base and willingness to share your gifts. So, let's get to it. Here's Kelly Phillips Badal.

This year, the significance beauty consumers place on value will drive the importance of quality. The emerging ‘quiet beauty' trend will emphasise the quality of ingredients, proven effectiveness of products and reassurance of simplicity. Other hot trends include, inclusive beauty, mushroom beauty, virtual try-ons etc, but how does this all work in the world of sustainability? According to a report from Statistica, the United Kingdom's beauty and personal care market is experiencing a surge in demand for clean and sustainable beauty products.In the ever-evolving realm of beauty, 2024 promises a dazzling array of trends that transcend the conventional. Sustainability takes centre stage, and the fragrance industry is no exception. Upcycled and refillable perfumes are poised to redefine the olfactory experience, ushering in a new era of scents created from repurposed ingredients. With a growing consumer desire for environmentally responsible fragrances, this trend not only resonates with ecological consciousness but also makes financial sense. The allure of distinctive scents coupled with minimised waste aligns seamlessly with the contemporary quest for personalised and eco-conscious products. We are chatting with Millie Kendall OBE, CEO of the British Beauty Council; and Victoria Brownlie, Chief Policy Officer at the British Beauty Council.Show notes:Sustainable Beauty Coalition - https://britishbeautycouncil.com/sustainable-beauty-coalition/Planet Positive Beauty Guide - https://britishbeautycouncil.com/ppbg/Subscribe to this podcast in all places where you listen to podcasts and drop us an email at info@sustainablyinfuenced.com, or follow us on Instagram and TikTok Hosted on Acast.

Today's episode is with Erin Beatty, the founder of Rentrayage, which is a sustainable fashion brand that creates one-of-a-kind garments with upcycled vintage garments and fabrics. Erin has many years of fashion industry experience, everywhere from Chanel to Nylon Magazine to Gap. In 2008, she co-founded SUNO, and even then, their inaugural collection was produced in Kenya from vintage Kanga fabrics.  After SUNO's closing in 2016, Erin consulted with emerging brands until creating Rentrayage in 2019, rejecting the business-as-usual model and developing a way to reimagine what already exists; creating beauty and value from what has been discarded. I had the pleasure of seeing the latest Rentrayage collection during New York Fashion Week this season, and you'll hear about all this and more on today's show!  So let's just dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [3:22] When Erin was young, she was inspired by Japanese designers, workwear, and Americana – and it was these styles that continued to inspire her as she grew into her fashion career. [6:54] When SUNO closed in 2016, Erin became consumed with guilt about consuming things produced new. [15:54] Sourcing vintage fabric from mills in Italy. [22:19] Has Erin seen the fashion industry make changes, in terms of sustainability and re-use? [25:47] The details of the Rentrayage SS24 collection, and the upcycled garments that went into it.

Author Tina Yeager joins Greg today and they explore her new book Upcycled, Crafted for a Purpose that takes you on an interactive journey to discover how God reinvents rusty and flawed folks like us into cherished masterpieces. We all wear labels. No matter what the label is, you have to check that label against what God says about you! Proverbs 11:25 says “A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” You have to do what is uncomfortable in order to get out of your discomfort. Read that again.

10% of America is hungry, and 37% of Food made ends up as waste, equal to 140 billion meals of Food. Upcycled foods use ingredients that otherwise would not have gone to human consumption, are procured and produced using verifiable supply chains, and positively impact the environment. We discuss renovation vs. disruptive innovation, radical collaboration, and turning pineapples into Nikes.

Dionne Woods chats with Kelly Wiler today on the Paint Talks Podcast. Kelly is an Ohio artist that has been creating and practicing art since she was a young girl inspired by her art teacher, she lives with her husband Jeff of 26 years, and their 20-year-old daughter Cassidy. While Kelly teaches many different styles of paint classes and workshops, she specializes in the Intuitive Art process as a way to push her students to new levels of awareness in their own artistic journey. Kelly found her own “artistic fingerprint” (as she refers to it) once she started incorporating this unique soulful practice into her own paintings and believes it's inclusive to every creator, no matter what their level of painting is. Kelly currently owns a full-time working art studio in Zanesville, Ohio called Girl UPcycled Studio where she can be found daily working on new furniture and canvas art or teaching her online membership group “The Creators Club”. Kelly welcomes the public inside her studio on Fridays and Saturdays to shop the various curated items she has found from local and small creators throughout the U.S. or they may even choose to attend art classes, retreats, workshops or the always fun First Friday Gallery Hop that our town offers every month!
