“We have such a great community and amazing resources in the city and throughout the suburbs. I wanted to lean into that and create something that could bring us together to explore ways we can build the sustainable future we want to be a part of. Fashion is one commonality — we all wear clothes. This is an avenue where we can learn about things such as where the items in our closet are made, what sustainability means when choosing what clothes to buy, and how we can make the best choices using the resources available to us.” – Macaila Britton on Sustainable Fashion Week coming to Chicago.
