Speaking to fibre2fashion, Mor Aframian, director of branding & community relations at Redress Raleigh, a North Carolina-based eco-fashion company, said, “I feel that history plays an important role in shaping a fashion brands’ present and future, especially in terms of evaluating opportunities and decision making.”

Citing an example, she says, “Designer outdoor clothing brand Patagonia is a great example on how history has been pushing itself to innovate, reduce its environmental and social impact and in educating its consumers.”

The success behind the Patagonia brand is its transparency in business practices which holds the brand to its word while inviting its customers to participate in the ongoing efforts to reduce the impact as a civilization.

“For example, our objective is to translate the brands positive use of British and sustainable fabrics, focusing on the UK production, British craftsmanship and intelligent as well as offering feminine and flattering pieces,” she adds.
