In this episode of Fashion, Really?, we’re talking about fashion not just as self-expression—but as resistance to a culture of carelessness and cruelty. Our hosts kick things off with a peek into their own wardrobes, before getting serious dissecting a hard-hitting report revealing that most brands—yes, even ones that seem sustainable—are failing the planet by having no real climate action goals.  We are then so pleased to have Orsola de Castro join the conversation, the author and co-founder of Fashion Revolution, who lays down the politics of repair. Why is mending your jeans a form of protest? And what does it mean to reclaim these “lost” skills in the age of overproduction? Plus, Emma and Joshua call out brands playing fast and loose with the word “vintage,” and question Faragamo’s misleading claims about bio-based leather (spoiler: it’s tanned calf skin). If you care about what you wear—and what’s behind it—this episode brings the sugar and spice.
