Convo No. 7
With a passion for textile and with crafts as her tool, Victoria Frausin makes the world a better place by connecting the dots between people, clothes and the environment. As my partner in crime for Lancaster Fashion Revolution Week 2018 it is an honour to share her story. A true inspiration and a force to be reckoned with.

Holiday season and its festivities is closing in on us all and naturally (one of the million things) that occupy our minds is WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?? If you didn’t think of it yet, well there you go, a sweet reminder from me to you. If you want to look smashing and dashing in new and surprising outfits for all gatherings, sometimes RE-STYLING OLD LOVED CLOTHES is all it takes, but for the times where that doesn’t cut it and the closet screams for something new:
FASHION LIBRARIES is one of many answers to how you sustain (1) a fab outfit, (2) a sustainable lifestyle and (3) a healthy wallet - all in one go 💫
There’s many exciting alternatives for a more sustainable wardrobe, #fashionlibraries are one of them! But what exactly are they? 👕+📚=🤔 Around the time of #fashionrevolution earlier this year I had a chat with Dr Sarah Netter from @cbscph to find out more!
In this convo I mention @lena_library but there are also others like @fjong.co that let’s you not only rent but also rent out 🤑 outfits you 💗. Or if renting is not available, what about buying vintage or second hand from platforms like @sobocommunity which gathers vintage fashion from all over Europe.

thegreenlabels.com is a new kind of webshop, raising the bar for value-based shopping while spreading the fashion revolution and making the world a better place. It was founded by Claudia Angeli in 2018. We sat down for a chat about her sustainable journey, sustainable fashion and of course her webshop!

It’s a fact, we don’t always practice what we preach. Luckily we have people like Tina Mueller PhD fellow at @cbscph researching how to set us straight!
If you’re among the many who kick of the new year with resolutions or goals for the coming year, the statistics tells us that by this time the chance is rather high that you’ve already abandoned the whole thing 👀
Studies show that as many as 80% of us are likely to abandon our resolutions already by the second week of January! Someone’s actually gone as far as coining the 2nd Friday of January “Quitters Day” 🙈
It’s a fact, WE DON’T ALWAYS PRACTICE WHAT WE PREACH. That doesn’t just go for new year resolutions, but also for things like sustainable practices 🌿
LUCKILY there’s plenty of advice out there on how to get on with it, but also people like Tina Mueller PhD fellow at @cbscph researching how to set us straight 🙌🏼 Last year around the time of #fashionrevolutionweek we had a chat about people’s intentions vs. their behaviour and some of the research that aims to unpick how we can close the gap to help people act on their good intentions.

Who is the environmentally friendly clothing consumer? 🤔 I had a chat with Kristian, PhD fellow in sustainable consumer behaviour at @cbscph to find out more!
