Fashion & Sustainability: London Fashion of College

Fashion & Sustainability is a short course through the London College of Fashion. This course is a collaboration between Kering, who are the owners of brilliant designers like Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen and Gucci! It brings your attention to the fact that fashion is the 2nd dirtiest industry in the world. It highlights the impacts of fashion on both social and environmental levels. A huge eye opener for me was the impact of every day items being produced every day by retailers globally. Cow leather having the most impact on the environment from cradle to gate, silk and then cotton. I highly recommend this course for all Retail Buyers, as you can also help reduce the climate change!
