Arts
Listen to Your Art is a podcast that aims to understand the world through the prism of art. This first series is about the Sustainable Fashion Scene in New York! We are listening to 5 inspiring women to discover this movement and how it reflects in a broader scale the need for the new generation to merge their environmental activism with their work and art. Our first conversation is with Anne Whiting. She is a young designer and founder of the ethical womenswear label Anne James New York. She is very involved in the Sustainable Fashion community in New York, extremely passionate about ecology and fashion and at the early age of her career. We talked about her story, the influence of the women of her life, how her experience in marketing, production and design shaped her engagement. When she knew that sustainable fashion was there, that many brands already opened the lead, she decided to join the field, but she doesn’t hide her insecurities as a young entrepreneur and the tough competition out there.
