    Feb episode: Waste Diversion

    February 2023 episode with Camille Tagle CoFounder+ Creative Director of FAB SCRAP a nonprofit in NYC Re-thinking textile waste! Speaker Bio: Camille Tagle brings her deep history in the world of design and fashion to her work as Creative Director of FABSCRAP. After graduating from UCLA with a degree in Art History, Tagle studied design at the Fashion Institute of Technology. She then spent her early career as an eveningwear designer for renowned New York City design houses, with creations that sold in major retailers and graced the red carpet. It was through her work as a designer that Tagle witnessed just how much fabric, especially reusable yardage, went to landfill after each collection. Moved by the issue and concerned about the environmental impact, she created her own reuse system to get these fabrics into the hands of those who could use them. Tagle joined forces with FABSCRAP in 2017, developing new and creative outlets for fabric redistribution and solidifying FABSCRAP as an acclaimed materials resource. Tagle is also especially passionate about continuing to strengthen FABSCRAP’s relationships with schools throughout the country, believing that sustainability must become a key component in the education of today’s designers to better shape tomorrow’s design practices. Bout the brand: FABSCRAP is a charitable, non-profit organization with 501(c)3 designation. Rethinking textile waste! Providing pickup of unwanted fabric from businesses and engaging local creative communities in reuse. They are based in NYC + Philadelphia. Your contributions are tax-deductible and support the reduction of fabric waste from the fashion and design industries in New York City.
