Description

Clare Press has a way with fashion, a way with words and a passion for finding the threads required to weave a new story for fashion and clothes into the future with her new book “Wear Next” - a fashion world that is kind, just, regenerative, innovative and inclusive - ditching the dark underbelly of exploitation and microplastic-filled materials currently at play in most stores around the world. We explore How buying less, upping quality and reusing clothes and fabrics in fashion can practically play out and not lead to job losses en masseWe explore what's changed - has fashion's sustainability got worse or better? How can we create a more ethical and sustainable fashion future?What is the role of technology in fashion’s future? The divide between celebrity ‘art’ fashion and everyday  people’s choices Why did you write this new book, focused on solutions?The challenge of books and important work in a fast-info, head-linings-only worldI also read the first couple of pages of Clare’s book in the intro for you to get a taste of the book's journey and now want to start a new career in audiobook reading - it was so fun! I hope you enjoy it and remember - buy books. They matter -  authors are awesome! AlexxClare can be found at: Website: https://thewardrobecrisis.com/Podcast: https://thewardrobecrisis.com/podcastInstagram: @mrspress and @thewardrobecrisis Facebook: @wardrobecrisisAnd her new book online here: https://booktopia.kh4ffx.net/wearnext And thank you to our Low Tox businesses sponsoring the show and helping you make your swaps with their special offers: KillaPilla code: LOWTOXLIFE give you 15% OFF entire purchase with Free Shipping within Australia.

Hello! Thanks for being curious about the Low Tox Life podcast. I'm Alexx Stuart, your host, and after writing and researching on health and sustainability for many years at lowtoxlife.com, I am thrilled to bring this podcast to you as an extension of the online community. The concept of living a Low Tox Life is one that rejects perfection, black and white notions of there only being one way to 'do it right'. Instead, we take a relaxed and curious approach to better choices to incorporate into our lives as and if they fit. Low Tox therefore instead of 'no tox' which to most of us who aren't on an off grid hippy commune, just isn't achievable. There's nothing more that makes me sad than having people quit before they begin because you feel like a failure. Let's feel awesome about what we can learn and do from today! On this show, we cover lots of low tox topics around sustainability, health, fashion, farming, lowering our toxic load and mind happiness and with the brilliant minds I'm so grateful to chat with, I just know you'll be inspired as I am from each show. Enjoy, subscribe, pop the kettle on and most importantly: Welcome!
