Stitching Sustainability: The FabScrap Story with Camille Tagle
Listen now
Description
Prepare to be fascinated by the heartening journey of Camille Tagle, the creative genius and co-founder of FabScrap. She shares her intriguing transition from a designer of evening wear to a pioneering innovator, committed to sustainable fashion. FabScrap, the non-profit she co-founded, creatively addresses the environmental issues associated with textile waste by partnering with brands to responsibly dispose of their surplus materials, which are then either downcycled, reused, or even sold at discounted rates to the public.  Get ready to be inspired by the narrative of how a small team at FabScrap is making a big difference, having saved a whopping 1.5 million tons of fabric from ending up in landfills. Camille also enlightens us on the importance of being transparent about the materials used in products and designing with longevity in mind. The discussion promises to leave you with valuable insights into the world of sustainable fashion, and hopefully, inspire you to contribute towards such remarkable initiatives in your own unique way.
