SOME IMPORATANT INTERVIEW QUESTIONS ANSWERED BY SANDRA ABOUT HER BRAND "NANUSHKA" WHICH ANSWERS WHY SHE IS THE SLOW FASHION DESIGNER :-



Has Nanushka always aimed to be an eco-conscious brand?

Sustainability has always been very important to me, from both a personal and business perspective. One of the founding values of Nanushka was, and still is, to cherish the planet and all living creatures, so it was always present and embedded in the core of the business in different forms. A connection with nature is very important to me, and I think it has truly manifested itself in the new RESORT 21 collection, which I have designed while in lockdown in the Hungarian countryside.



The type of vegan leather used at Nanushka?

Our vegan leather is made of polyester and polyurethane. We call it vegan because it is not animal skin and no animal derivatives are used in the manufacturing process.

Nanushka is not an entirely vegan brand. We use a combination of vegan leather and regenerated leather, which we introduced in our FALL/WINTER 2020 collection.

 what are some sustainability measures that Nanushka has been taking?

Sustainability starts with the design process, so the fabric usage and sourcing are key elements. We have recently signed with CANOPY and made a commitment to ensure our cellulose-based materials come from sustainably managed forests that are mainly connected with our slip satin range. We also use recycled faux fur, regenerated leather, responsibly-sourced wool and recycled cashmere. In line with our commitment to a circular economy, we recycle and upcycle our fabrics to give them new life. 


In terms of the Nanushka aesthetic, where do you mainly look to for inspiration?

Nature and architecture are constant inspirations for me. I like organic shapes and textures, the urban nomad and nomadic lifestyle. They are present in some way in all my collections as Nanushka, for me, is modern with a bohemian spirit.

FAST FASHION

  WHAT IS FAST FASHION ? Fast fashion can be defined as cheap, trendy clothing, that samples ideas from the catwalk or celebrity culture and turns them into garments in high street stores at breakneck speed to meet consumer demand. The idea is to get the newest styles on the market as fast as possible, so shoppers can snap them up while they are still at the height of their popularity, and then, sadly, discard them after a few wears.  It forms a key part of the toxic system of overproduction and consumption that has made fashion one of the largest polluters in the world. HOW DID FAST FASHION HAPPEN ? Before the 1800s, fashion was slow. You had to source your own materials like wool or leather, prepare them, weave them, and then make the clothes. The Industrial Revolution introduced new technology—like the sewing machine. Clothes became easier, quicker, and cheaper to make. Dressmaking shops emerged to cater for the middle classes.
