इस एपिसोड के बारे में
Nancy Rhodes, the founder of Alternew, is a veteran in the fashion industry. Her years of adding to the wasteful overconsumption of goods led her to a Master's degree in sustainability and eventually to founding Alternew, a brand that's designed to be inherently sustainable by promoting a re-fashion economy. Alternew is an on-demand clothing alteration and repair service with a strong mission of sustainability, positive body image, and accessibility.
In this episode of the Building While Flying podcast, Nancy joins Maribel Lara to explain her vision to make the fashion industry more sustainable.
