I came across Carol Miltimore's work when I was adding to our resources for the Go Low Tox e course's clothing day. She's a Brooklyn based designer who spends a fair part of the year in India - her second home. I thought it would be great to chat to Carol about her journey which wasn't always centred around ethics and sustainability, working for some big brands and mainstream fast fashion in her earlier training. She talks about the challenges, the true cost of fashion if you want it to be ethical and sustainable, and what drives her artistically and environmentally in her work. If you've been curious about moving towards more sustainable choices it's a great show to understand in great detail what goes on behind the scenes from the farming to the dyes, the environment to the manufacturing and then trying to actually cut a break out there and thrive in the very fast page, noisy fashion world of today while staying true to your design values. Enjoy the show and for the show notes and Goodness Me Box offer head to lowtoxlife.com/podcast for today's show notes. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. Hosted on Acast.
