We have all been conditioned to believe that textiles should be inexpensive, which skews our understanding of the manufacturing process and normalizes overconsumption.

We are exceptional at bigging up our friends, telling them how great their bum looks, how clear their skin is or how pretty their hair looks, but we never say the same to ourselves. 

Our shopping choices must extend beyond style and comfort. We must understand where our clothes come from and what happens to them after we are finished with them. 

The Fernie Feel Good Collection, by Untamed Fernie and B.Aynsley Art, raising awareness for the Elk Valley Suicide task Force —Designs will be available at The Wapiti Music Festival on August 5th, and 6th 

It's super soft, breathable, versatile, wicks away moisture, and is a great sustainable option—a fabric that is great for you and the planet.

It drives me nuts that clothing has become disposable. We need to understand where our clothes come from and what happens to them after we are finished with them.

The slow fashion movement makes people think about their shopping habits and how their choices affect others and the planet.

I am also lucky enough to have such beautiful friends who don’t mind getting half-naked in the streets in any weather. Plus they all look amazing in my designs and love playing dress up for the day.

 

It is a talent that takes a lot of practice and not everyone can do it, I definitely couldn't. I have learned so much about photoshoots, modelling and body image

It has always frustrated me that nothing is ever long enough and there are no good-quality leggings out there. Leggings are not pants haha
