While all of the topics Clara and Amber touch on in Fashioned have a bearing on how we dress and live life today, one seems just that little bit more poignant.

Episode four is all about the revolutionary new ideas and inventions that kickstarted the fashion industry as we know it now, shining a light on how so-called “fast fashion” came to be in the 19th century. The hosts chart the rise and potential future of this sort of industrialised fashion, and discuss its implications on the environment, workers’ rights and more.
