Description

From "sustainable fashion is expensive" to "sweatshop jobs are better than no jobs", I'm busting some of the MOST common sustainable fashion myths in this episode. Sustainable fashion is a journey involving unlearning, learning and perspective shifting.  This episode is certainly not about saying that I know it all — I believed many of these myths and even promoted a couple of them before — and I'm sure there will be more myths that I'll unlearn on my journey. That said, these are some of the misconceptions that I've seen throughout these years in the conscious fashion space that I wanted to clear up!  Have another myth to add to this list? DM me on Instagram.  LINKS MENTIONED:Clothing Poverty bookOR FoundationOR Foundation Instagram Fashion Revolution Transparency IndexFashionChecker.orgGarment Worker Jobs at Risk from AutomationPayUp Fashion  TEXT VERSION OF EPISODE + MORE LINKS: consciouslifeandstyle.com/sustainable-fashion-myths  CONNECT WITH CONSCIOUS STYLE:Website: consciouslifeandstyle.comInstagram: instagram.com/consciousstyleConscious Edit Newsletter: consciouslifeandstyle.com/edit

Each week, host Elizabeth Joy interviews fashion changemakers — from labor activists to slow fashion entrepreneurs — to explore this very question. Hear about topics like greenwashing, garment worker rights, consumer psychology, secondhand fashion, making the most of your closet, and more.
