20) How Can We Make Mending Mainstream? with Josephine Philips of Sojo
Category: Arts
Duration: 00:27:34

Description:

Between the overflow of cheap clothing, schedules packed to the brim, and a decline in sewing education, torn and ill-fitting clothes are far more likely to be tossed than mended or altered.

But fashion tech entrepreneur Josephine Philips is on a mission to change that with her clothing repair and tailoring app, Sojo.

Sojo makes it more convenient than ever to get your clothes mended or modified — and I have no doubt that it's going to transform the industry.

Josephine is going to give us many more details about how Sojo works, as well as the future plans for this company, in this episode. You'll also hear Josephine talk about:

  • Why mending is the "forgotten" circular fashion solution
  • How we can make mending more mainstream
  • The importance of sustaining local tailoring and seamster businesses
  • And more!
