Eco-Conscious Fashion & Nature’s Wisdom with Mara Hoffman

This week, we’re thrilled to be speaking with fashion designer Mara Hoffman, the President and Creative Director of her own namesake brand, known throughout the world for its innovation and creativity. Nowadays, Mara is also widely known for her fierce commitment to sustainability; however, when she founded her company in 2000, there was very little dialogue (if any) about the fashion industry’s impact on the planet. In this conversation, we explore how Mara methodically and carefully shifted her brand to an eco-conscious model starting in 2015, how movement, nature, and femininity inspire her creatively, and how she finds solace and wisdom from time spent in nature, especially among the trees near her home in upstate New York. Show NotesMara Hoffman: Our ApproachMara Hoffman: Our MaterialsMara Hoffman: Our ManufacturingMara Hoffman: Our CommitmentsMara Hoffman: Wear More Wash LessMara Hoffman: Our GuidelinesMara Hoffman ResaleMara Hoffman NYC Flagship StoreBiophilic Cities ProjectThe Overstory by Richard PowersInterview: Designer Mara Hoffman on Sustainability in Fashion (Teen Vogue)Mara Hoffman’s Environmental Efforts Extend Beyond Clothing (Zoe Report)Key Words: Fashion, Fashion Industry, Sustainability, Sustainable, Sustainable Fashion, Mara Hoffman, Biophilia, Biophilic Design, Retail, Environment, Climate, Climate Change, Nature, Trees, Overstory, Nature Wisdom, Sacred Nature, DesignBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.
