Bonnie Fechter: Fashion Designers

Future Heist

Bonnie Fechter is a fashion label by Sarah Buchanan and Rosie Ingleby produced entirely in the UK which challenges the seasonal structure of fashion collections.

They say: "As designers, we've always been really passionate about clothing and design, however, quickly became disillusioned by the fast fashion industry and how it encourages a throw-away culture. We wanted to create a conceptual clothing label to make people more consumer conscious, to really appreciate the quality and design process involved and to fall back in love with clothes!"

Co-hosted with Chloe Vasseghi, in this episode, we discuss influences from their Scottish heritage, the growing crisis of waste in fashion and the need for a new understanding of clothes beyond the fashion prism that sees material in terms of what's hot and what's not.
