This week on How to Make Climate Change Sexy, I’m joined by Lydia Bolton, the designer and sustainability creator using upcycling to tackle textile waste!

We dive into her journey from working in the fashion industry to launching her own brand, the challenges of balancing sustainability with business, and why skill sharing is a crucial piece of the puzzle. Lydia also shares insights into her collaborations with brands like Nike and Lime Bike, the realities of sourcing deadstock materials, and why she chose not to enter the rental market.

If you’re curious about how upcycling can shift fashion culture, how small brands can influence big players, or just want to learn how to make your wardrobe more sustainable, this episode is for you! Follow Lydia at @lydiabolton_ and check out her latest work.
