Description
It's the final part of our conversation with Dani of Picnic. Insert all of the sad emojis here. We will talk about starting a new brand during a global pandemic, quarantine, and just general crazy life times. And how her experiences as sweater designer for several fast fashion brands has prepared her for the challenge. We will discuss setting boundaries, paying yourself a living wage, what "collab" really means, and "the customer is always right." Spoiler: The customer is *not* always right. Also, a special report on vegan leather. Guess what? It's neither sustainable nor eco friendly. And it's no more "vegan" than your cotton t-shirt or your smartphone. Not to ruin the surprise, but it's sort of one of the best image makeovers in fashion history. Have an episode suggestion? Or maybe just a burning question?
