Description

This week I am joined by Kaley, editorial director at Cascale, formerly known as Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC). You may have heard of the Higg Index, a collection of tools that measure the environmental and social impact of products and supply chains in the apparel, footwear, and textile industriesIn 2009, Walmart and Patagonia founded the SAC to convene apparel industry stakeholders on a pre-competitive basis and develop a common approach to measuring sustainability and in 2010 they launched the Higg Index. Each year, over 24,000 users rely on the Higg Index to measure their footprint, improve and take action. Kaley played a founding role as Sustainability Editor at WWD, covering business, spearheading digital properties like the “Sustainability Scene,” and moderating live events. After 5 years at WWD, Kaley now oversees editorial and currently guides Cascale’s distinctive voice across content and live media operations, all key to the organization’s rebrand’s success. An avid community gardener and activist, she’s contributed to U.N. Women USA NY during the chapter’s reign, and recently served as an advisory committee member for the 2023 U.N. Conscious Fashion Campaign & Lifestyle Network.Listen for some shoutouts for vintage and repair stores in New York too. With such a strong record in sustainable fashion journalism, Kaley is a thought leader in this space and offers great insight in this episode, I’m very excited to share it.Follow Interwoven:Interwoven IG: @interwovenstories.podVictoria TikTok: @vfsmith11Interwoven LinkedIn: Interwoven StoriesVictoria Pickle Closet: @victoriasInterwoven Substack: @interwovenstoriesFollow Cascale:Instagram: @cascale_orgLinkedIn: CascaleWebsite: cascale.orgFollow Kaley:Instagram: @kaleyroshitshLinkedIn: Kaley RoshitshWebsite: kaleyroshitsh.comListener Story:Instagram: @sofia_bergstrom Business: @stchsbysShare your own stories about vintage, thrifted, preloved, secondhand, rental, and any meaningful pieces you have!
