Creating a Sustainable Relationship with Fashion: In Conversation with Alice Wilby

Fashion inspires. It shapes culture. But it also impacts our planet.

Join the Women in Sustainability Network and sustainable fashion leader Alice Wilby during London Sustainable Fashion Week 2025 for an interactive discussion about key efforts in sustainable fashion amidst the current ecological impacts of the fashion industry!
