LIVE! – The Value of Vintage
In a special live recording, Louise Gookey hosts a panel with Amelia Twine, Tasha Nickson and Nicole Akong exploring why vintage fashion might be one of the easiest ways to transform our wardrobes – and our impact.
Sustainable Fashion Week has teamed up with presenter Louise Gookey to launch a podcast series exploring our relationship with fashion and how we can positively reconnect with how we buy, wear, care and dispose of our clothing.
Louise explored how switching to secondhand can be the easiest and most meaningful way of making our personal fashion habits more sustainable. In the session Louise was in conversation with Amelia Twine (Founder, Sustainable Fashion Week), Tasha Nickson (Soil Association Certification) and Nicole Akong (upcycling advocate and Great British Sewing Bee finalist).
Louise Gookey is TV and radio presenter, reporter and sustainability advocate. Sustainability became a passion of Louise’s after learning how fast fashion impacted the environment. This led to a curiosity in consumerism and exploring ways we can spend without destroying our planet. Louise has presented for the likes of BBC Good Food, Spotlight TV, Showcase TV and Property TV, and hosted award shows like The National Film Awards, World Fashion Awards, Digital Education Awards and National Reality TV Awards.
