Shein, Boohoo, Temu… Fast fashion is creating a nightmare for a our planet. Globally, fashion production comprises 10% of total carbon emissions, as much as the European Union. It dries up water sources and pollutes rivers and streams, while 85% of all textiles go to dumps each year.

With new seasons and a never ending revolving door of new styles, it’s easy to get pulled into the trap of buying more, buying cheap, move on and throw away.

So how do you create a plastic-free, ethical, fashionable wardrobe on a budget? To answer that question we welcome back Andrea Marsden, the queen of all things fabric, to host this special this special #actsofconnection Fashion Revolution Week event.
