Episode Synopsis
Dahlia is joined by Tiffanie Darke, Fashion Editor and Sustainability Activist to discuss her perspective on the clothes we wear and to raise awareness for the very stark reality of the impact of our need for consumption.Tiffanie explains her approach to mindful consumption through the rule of 5, the number of new items she believes are a manageable amount to purchase across a 12 month period to support the slowdown of manic consumption and the associated environmental impacts. Dahlia and Tiffanie discuss how the activity of shopping is so intrinsically linked to all aspects of our life, how we use it for moments of celebration, retail therapy and to stem boredom - and why all this needs to change if we want to get serious about protecting our planet.Included in the conversation are Tiffanie's reflections on how she has managed her 'rule of 5' and her learning from 2023 and 2024 plus a snapshot into her world as Editor of Style for The Times magazine and the purchase of her very first 'luxury' item.Tiffanie Darke spent 11 years as Editor of Style Magazine for The Times and then became Editor in Chief for Harrods. She is now a sustainability activist and journalist. Her latest book 'What to wear and why' is out now.https://whattowear.world/
