Ep 6 | Why Circular Fashion Makes So Much Sense
Renting, swapping, reselling, repairing, upcycling - the fashion industry is making major shifts to embrace circular, sustainable models. This didn't happen overnight though, it's taken trailblazers and visionaries to build communities, businesses and platforms that make consuming fashion in a sustainable way easier and accessible for all. (http://all.In) In (http://all.In) this episode host, Jade McSorley (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jade-mcsorley-05015938/), invites her bestie and cofounder of sustainable fashion community LOANHOOD (https://www.linkedin.com/company/loanhood/), Lucy Hall (https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucy-hall1/), to talk all things circular fashion. Lucy and Jade's long lasting friendship began when Jade became a fashion model after being on Britian's Next Top Model and Lucy was her booker for jobs. Being immersed in the industry and seeing the detrimental effects fashion is having on our planet, Jade wanted to do something about it. She pitched her idea of LOANHOOD to Lucy, and soon after they started hosting swap shops around London and building a strong community online and in real life. Lucy previously ran her own farm-to-fork restaurant in central London which is when she became passionate about living more sustainably. Her experience from the fashion industry and skills from running a restaurant created the perfect recipe for success when moving into the sustainable fashion space. This conversation will help listeners understand why circular fashion just makes sense and is particularly relatable for those working to create a more sustainable economy and future ♻ #circularfashion #circulareconomy #sustainablefashion #rentfashion

Ep 3 | Is AI Revolutionising the Modeling Industry for Good?
Ep 3 | Is AI Revolutionising the Modeling Industry For Good? John Horner, Managing Director at Models 1 - the largest and most successful model agency in Europe - joined Jade McSorley for another insightful conversation on Clean Cut TV's first podcast series where we explore tech and innovation in the fashion industry. John and Jade are witnessing firsthand the digital transformations occurring in the industry for models and how artificial intelligence is being incorporated at a rapid pace. This comes with questions around ethics and morality, with lines blurred surrounding models' rights, pay and whether they own the digital versions of themselves or not. Jade began her modeling career as a contestant in the fifth season of Britain's Next Top Model back in 2009. She was a front-runner on the show, and became a fan favourite because of her consistently strong performances and warm personality. After placing third, she was signed to Models 1 and that’s when things really took off. She traveled around the world modeling for luxury and fast fashion brands, featured in most fashion publications you could think of. After being in the industry for 10 years though, Jade noticed the impact that fashion was having on people and planet which lead her to study a PhD focused on innovation, sustainability and ethics in fashion, while building circular fashion platform LOANHOOD which she is the co-founder of. Together John and Jade are now working on the implications of digitising models - Jade through her PhD research at University for the Creative Arts and John as head of the British Fashion Model Association - creating game changing solutions and embracing new technologies and AI, while honoring models who are the faces of fashion. As the world keeps spinning we don’t always consider those working hard behind the scenes to create impactful, positive changes in industries that we all participate in as consumers. You will learn a lot from this conversation, leaving you with much to think about! #sustainablefashion (https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/sustainablefashion) #techinfashion (https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/techinfashion) #techinnovation (https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/techinnovation) #digitalmodels (https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/digitalmodels) #fastfashion (https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/fastfashion)

Ep 2 | When models turn their backs on fast fashion
Ep 2 | When Models Turn Their Backs on Fast Fashion Jade McSorley is joined by twins, models and sustainable fashion contributors and consultants Dr Brett Staniland and Scott Staniland on Clean Cut TV's first podcast series where we explore tech and innovation in the fashion industry. From being scouted on the street to being fully immersed in the fashion industry as models, and then realising the social and environmental problems caused by this industry, Brett and Scott now only work with brands that are sustainably minded or are making clear changes to become more sustainable and ethical. When modeling is your career, it's a massive risk to turn your back on jobs because they aren't aligned with your values. It's a risk that's paid off for the twins though and they are now important voices on social media, educating and inspiring people to become conscious consumers. Needless to say this conversation is entertaining and honest. It will give viewers insight into the not-so-glamorous side of the fashion industry, why it's important to use your voice and speak up, and leave you feeling inspired by the textile and design innovation happening that allows clothing to be created more sustainably. #sustainablefashion #techinfashion #techinnovation #digitalmodels #fastfashion Follow us for more on...
