Listen "Trend Forecasting and Sustainability with Clarice Garcia"
Episode Synopsis
Today’s guest is trend forecaster and sustainability advocate Clarice Garcia. Clarice has collaborated on projects for clients such as Nike, Google, L’Oréal, YouTube and Netflix.
As part of her PhD, she created a tool called ‘Fashion Futuring’ which won the Victorian Premiere’s Design Award and the Australian Good Design Awards. It’s a deck of cards that prompts people to devise radical alternatives for a more sustainable and equitable fashion industry.
In this episode we’ll discuss how quickly trends are changing, why the average Australian is buying more than 50 pieces of clothing per year, and how dressing as your authentic self could help save the planet.
