Alden Wicker is an an award-winning journalist and sustainable lifestyle and fashion expert. She has written investigative pieces and deep dives on innovation, materials, and consumer trends for The New York Times, Wired, The Cut, Vox, Vogue, InStyle, Harper’s Bazaar, Quartz, Inc. Magazine, Glamour, Popular Science, Refinery29, Vogue Business, Craftsmanship Quarterly, and more. She is also the founder and editor of EcoCult, a leading international information hub on sustainable and ethical fashion, where she and contributors explain the science and sustainability of fashion to shoppers and industry pros alike. Her book, To Dye For: How Toxic Fashion Is Making Us Sick – and How we can Fight Back, reveals how clothing manufacturers have successfully swept consumers’ concerns under the rug for more than 150 years, and why synthetic fashion and dyes made from fossil fuels are so deeply intertwined with the rise of autoimmune disease, infertility, asthma, eczema, and more.Need help navigating your mold injury without breaking the bank?
