109: Conscious Couture, Encouraging Sustainability Among Fashion Houses, + The Future of Textiles | Red Carpet Green Dress, Suzy Amis Cameron + Samata

Today we are joined by the brilliant Suzy Amis Cameron and Samata of Red Carpet Green Dress (RCGD), the women-led global change-making organization bringing sustainable design to the forefront of conversation and action within the fashion industry. The goal of Red Carpet Green Dress is to draw attention to the importance of more sustainable practices in fashion and be part of bringing those solutions to the global market; RCGD recently launched an eco-couture textile range in partnership with TENCEL™ Luxe, bringing innovative biodegradable solutions to the fashion industry. We talk about this brilliant new partnership and its adjacent design contest, plus favorite previous red carpet designs, celebrity talent, and the response of iconic fashion houses to the challenge of creating beautiful, sustainable couture.
