Join Gillian Smellie for an enlightening talk on ethical fashion.
The fashion industry plays a significant role in the climate crisis and is often guilty of greenwashing. Join Gillian Smellie for an enlightening talk on ethical fashion and discover how intentional choices can help you adopt a more sustainable approach to what you wear.
As the founder of Intentional Clothing, the County Durham–based label rooted in mindful making, Gillian reflects on her shift toward slow, eco-conscious design. She shares her experience transforming unwanted luxury textiles through low-impact eco-printing and presents examples of her work, offering an inspiring look at how thoughtful design can reshape our relationship with fashion.
