Fashion Sustainability Panel with Mary Creagh MP

August 29, 2019 • Young Fabian Society

The Environment and Arts + Culture Networks present this panel event and Q&A about sustainability in the UK fashion industry. Mhairi Tordoff, chair of the Environment Network, chairs the conversation with Mary Creagh MP, chair of the Environmental Audit Committee (EAC); Edwina Ehrman, senior curator at the V&A; Tamara Cincik, CEO and Founder of Fashion Roundtable; Jenny Holloway, CEO at UK manufacturer Fashion Enter; and Vanita Badlani, founder and CEO of vegan fashion brand LaBante London.

They’ll talk about the latest EAC report on the UK fashion industry, taxing fast fashion garment producers, how to protect workers, and growing up in Huddersfield. Stick around for the Q&A, the audience questions are fascinating as well.

The event took place on Monday 20th May at Westminster.
