Today’s special paper edition of the highly influential British fashion website Business of Fashion boldly delves into the fashion industry’s top seven issues, including the human cost of garment manufacturing and environmental sustainability. A special event held in London last week ahead of today’s publication gathered fashion celebrities around a conversation between editor-in-chief Imran Amed and fashion sustainability pioneer Stella McCartney. Questions from the audience made clear that fashion designers are hungry to green their operations and struggle to find answers. McCartney especially answered the many pointed questions of Vivienne Westwood, and publicly vowed she would be “proud” to share all that she has learned. Here’s to celebrating what we hope is only the beginning of an urgent, open dialogue for transformation.
