Does the fashion industry really care? ft. up-and-coming sustainable designer Joshua J Small
Manage episode 422214331 series 3578548
Joshua James Small is an up-and-coming British designer (also a model and freelance stylist). He has worked for the likes of Richard Quinn and Gareth Pugh, announced the release of his brand exclusively to HUNGER magazine (THAT BROWN VELVET SUIT OMG) and has worked with the likes of SCHON, Teeth, Fucking Young! and Dear Boy Magazine, and the best place ever SHOWstudio.
His work has also caught the attention of stylist Karen Clarkson, and has been worn by multiple platinum selling singer/songwriter Rita Ora.
Joshua creates his collections in a sustainably-minded way, and focuses on precise pattern-cutting and escapism. On this week’s episode, I’m going to chat with Joshua not only about his creative process, journey, and getting press, but largely about that awkward balance between having values but also being in the thick of the industry – what a concept lol.
P.S: After this interview, a giant tree fell and we couldn't get out of my studio flat till I hacked away at the tree with a kitchen knife.
