CLARKS X CHRISTOPHER RAEBURN ON SUSTAINABLE FOOTWEAR written by Natalie Schroeter

Clarks have officially entered the sustainable field, with the release of their new Clarks x collaboration with Christopher Raeburn. This made to last quality brand founded in 1825, still remains a family brand has appropriately collaborated with the sustainable brand. The outcome is of an amazing unique collection, which has given fashion a way to give back to the continued cause of Climate Change.

This is something that we do everyday, by recycling food products and waste, while paying 5p for bags which aren’t recyclable. It is therefore only right that we have this same approach to shopping, especially when it is at an affordable price! In the words of Vivienne Westwood "Buy less. Choose well. Make it last. Quality, not quantity. Everybody's buying far too many clothes!”This is something the fashion industry should take more seriously another way to do this is by recycling and up cycling clothes. Christopher Raeburn is one of a few designers who has the sustainability factor at the core of his brand.Since launching his successful fashion line in 2008, he has won numerous awards including ‘Best Emerging Designer’,‘Menswear Brand of the Year’. He has also won awards for his ethical use of textiles in the fashion industry. The Clarks x collection is part of Christopher Raeburns SS’16 range titled Sarawak, featuring a Borneo theme and features Summer boots with leather and robust heels keeping you cool in summer and comfortable on long walks while you enjoy those long summer nights! If you’d rather party your way through summer instead, you can pick a pair of chunky strapped sandals robust enough for you to party the night away. The collection is priced around £75-£110 and available online at www.clarks.co.uk ​

Making sure they continue to be the leader in fashion.Burberry's big announcement definitely got our attention with their big plans to only show at fashion week twice a year and to amalgamate their menswear and womenswear lines together. In addition to this they will be creating season less collections. Well we saw this coming from a mile off...! Gender neutral has quickly become the new buzzword this is largely due to the realisation of transgender and feminism amongst other reasons. This has brought these issues to the forefront and where Burberry's idea for this new transition has largely come from! Obvious wasn’t it? This is also a way for discrimination to be less of an issue, where fashion is concerned of course. With a number or retailers including Selfridges and designers such as Gareth Pugh to name a few, who already had this in the bag, it is about time the rest of the industry followed suit! Burberry's customers already get a great deal of attention with their mega online platforms and digital presence, not to mention its long standing brand heritage and presence. There is obviously no need to build closer connections to their customers. This is obviously a move to increase their profitability as we all know ultimately fashion is a business and sadly this will always be the bottom line, however this is something that the fashion movers and shakers do not want us to believe...Sorry Burberry!
