[ruurdsnotes]

Woensdag 27 november – Sabine Niederer is op een lezing bij Spui25 en attendeert me enthousiast op Kate Fletcher – fashion and sustainability pioneer, design activist, writer, nature enthusiast, research professor. Auteur van onder andere bovenstaande boeken: Design and nature: A Partnership en Craft of Use. Volgens Sabine is haar werk een soort parallelle uitwerking van waar die andere Kate (Raworth) ook voor staat, maar dan toegespitst op mode.

Fashion, in its worst forms, feeds insecurity, peer pressure, consumerism and homogeneity...passive consumers ‘follow’ the trends prescribed by industry and choose between prefabricated, largely homogeneous goods...The result is de-skilled and dissatisfied individuals, who feel both unrepresented by the fashion system and unable to do anything about it.

Kate Fletcher, Sustainable Fashion and Textiles

[We are] poor if we cannot satisfy our need for identity, participation and creation... Yet fashion clothes as we experience them today are also the cause of multiple poverties: impairing the possibility of garment workers to meet needs...damaging our collective rights to enjoy a safe and convivial natural environment.
