Sustainability in textiles and materials for fashion, home & interiors.
While researching my dissertation for MSc in Sustainable Agriculture and Rural Development at Imperial College, I interviewed numerous fashion designers, representatives of the textiles industry, and NGOs to investigate why their wasn't more uptake of organic cotton by the fahsion industry. As a result, the need for a curated sustainable textiles showcase and sourcing platform became apparent and the Future Fabrics Expo was born in 2011 with educational information at the core. Nina has previously worked as a consultant on various environmental policy initiatives, and set up The Sustainable Angle in 2010 to initiate and support projects aimed at reducing the environmental impact of industry.
