We’ve asked you who harvests and makes your food - but we have yet to ask you who makes your clothes!  Julia Ahrens, co-owner and designer of Miakoda knows exactly who makes her clothing line, how they’re treated, compensated, and where her fabrics come from.  Not only does she care about how Miakoda’s pieces are made - she is extremely passionate about inclusive sizing and representation.  Listen to hear how she chooses her manufacturers, models, her experience in the industry, and the process behind how your clothes are made.
