Changemakers - How have influencers changed the landscape of sustainable fashion? LIVE episode, from the COACH Tomorrow's Vintage Pop Up

We often ask the question, “can fashion ever truly be sustainable?” According to BBC futures, more of us now understand that the fashion industry accounts for about 10% of global carbon emissions, and nearly 20% of wastewater. And while the environmental impact of flying is now well known, fashion uses more energy than both aviation and shipping combined.” Welcome to Changemakers. This is a 5 part mini series focussing on the people and businesses making impactful changes in the sustainable fashion space.A person, group of people or even a platform have the capacity to influence and educate their audience through informative posts, creative videos or other innovative forms of content creation.Today’s guests are Lara Adkins, Mira Almomani and Andrea Cheong who are all influencers utilising their platforms on not only Tik Tok but also Instagram to affect change.  My former co-host, Charlotte Williams and I spoke to our guests as part of the Coach “Tomorrow’s Vintage” conception store and pop-up, located in Spitalfields Market, London. Coach created the Coach(Re)Loved program, a circular ecosystem for refurbishing, reimagining and recycling pre-loved products, as the fashion house’s commitment to crafting a better-made future for all.  This immersive experience brings the four unique pillars of Coach (Re)Loved together , “Upcrafted, Vintage, Restored and Remade” to life through bespoke events and activations including the Coach Craftsmanship Bar, the opportunity to shop Coach (Re)Loved bags, as well as interactive collaborations with visiting artists throughout the experienceGuests:Lara Adkins Mira Al-MomaniAndrea Cheong Transcripts for this episode will be available on www.sustainablyinfluenced.com soon.
