    TAILORED THRIFTS: Sierra started her vintage business as a college sophomore, alongside her fashion merchandising degree - on sustainable fashion in a college town.

    On today’s show, we’re chatting with Sierra, who started her secondhand clothing business, Tailored Thrift, while she was a sophomore in college. She wanted to bring a curated selection of vintage and secondhand to her college town – and what started as popups and markets turned into a brick-and-mortar store.  I loved hearing about how Sierra worked on her business, almost as a research project tackled alongside getting her fashion merchandising degree. She found that in her college town there was a large group of people who wanted to shop sustainable, but didn’t feel like digging through the racks to thrift their clothing.  We also shared stories of vintage shopping on travels – from Brimfield Market to the UK – and wild times at summer vintage markets in the Midwest.  I loved getting to hear from Sierra’s experience as a college student entrepreneur, and I know you will, too  – so, let’s dive right into it! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [4:44] Sierra wanted to be a fashion designer, starting in middle school, and she often upcycled her own pieces from the thrift store. [7:36] Sierra worked on her business, almost as a research project tackled alongside getting her fashion merchandising degree.  [12:22] Getting started as a vintage business as a college sophomore. [15:51] Sierra’s first forays into vintage markets, and what she learned from doing them all over the Midwest. [24:34] On her college campus, Sierra found lots of people who wanted to shop sustainably, but needed to figure out how. [29:13] How Tailored Thrift has appealed to the young shoppers in her college town. [32:08] Vintage sourcing from Brimfield to the UK [36:36] The 250 pound antique cash register that Sierra’s mom got her for Christmas for the store. [38:57] Some of the fashion merchandising research Sierra put to use in her store. [43:51] Her love of vintage watches.

    FREE ARTS NYC: upcycling designer, Anne Whiting and recent FIT grad, Nashalae Martin - on how high school and college-aged young people learn about sustainable fashion.

    On today’s show, we’re chatting with Anne and Nashalae. Anne Whiting is an upcycled fashion designer, sustainable fashion activist, and writer. She is also a longtime volunteer and mentor for young people with Free Arts NYC, an organization that provides arts programming for youth – including arts internship placements.  Through Free Arts NYC and her upcycled brand, Anne James New York, Anne has worked with several high school and college-aged interns teaching them about the pillars of sustainable fashion and upcycling. She loves helping her interns create their own capsule collections using NYC secondhand shops like Goodwill and BigReuse as their source materials.  So, she reached out to do an episode with one of her former interns, Nashalae Martin, and suggested we could chat about how Gen-Z and the next generations learn about sustainable fashion. Nashalae is a recent graduate of FIT, and has held several fashion-related internships, including with Anne and Anne James New York. I loved hearing how she thinks about thrifting, where she learned about sustainable fashion in the first place, and how she thinks we need to expand the definition of sustainable fashion education.  This is such an interesting chat about how this movement connects with younger audiences  – so, let’s dive right into it! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [4:01] While Anne grew up during the fast fashion boom, she also loved thrifting with her grandmother.  [7:57] Nashalae found an eventual love of fashion design through a love of art. [10:38] Anne works with Free Arts NYC, an organization that provides arts programming for youth – including arts internship placements.  [20:23] How young people like Nashalae get their sustainable fashion education. [23:48] The two truths that young people love to thrift and they also love fast fashion. [27:18] Expanding the idea of sustainable fashion education. [35:33] Personal style and favorite pre-loved pieces.
