In Episode 4 I welcome Vicki Jones – clothes designer, surfer and founder of sustainable swimwear brand Sand & Palm – to the breakfast table. Vicki established Sand & Palm four years ago having trained and worked in activewear fashion for a decade. She was determined to set up an sustainable clothing company, despite being warned by industry insiders not to market her products as ‘eco’ for fear it would put people off buying them. But Vicki persevered, led by a passionate belief that sustainable clothing must be the future. Fast forward a few years, and Vicki’s swimwear, made from regenerated ocean plastics, is a quintessential slow fashion brand, consciously anchoring itself against the tide of fast fashion that has swept us all along, and demonstrating that style and sustainability can go hand in hand. During the episode we discuss the ways in which Vicki has consciously crafted each element of her business to be as sustainable as possible, from the fabrics she uses to packaging, marketing and using an ethical bank account. We also talk about the social and environmental problems with fast fashion, and how principles of slow, sustainable fashion are starting to become more mainstream. Check out the podcast web page where you will find more information about Sandy & Palm, a selection of recipes from our breakfast, and information about Episode 4’s two supporters – Horizon Inspired’s online meditation courses, and Lars & Margo’s coffee beans (along with discount codes for both): www.tiatamblyn.com/podcast I’d love to know your thoughts, do join the conversation, email me tia@botelet.com or message via Instagram @breakfast_and_beyond Please do subscribe to the podcast, rate, review and share this episode with friends and family who would enjoy it – thank you so much!
