Watch the BBC first on iPlayer 👉 bbc.in/iPlayer... Influencer Grace Mandeville presents a new short form docu-series for BBC iPlayer to see whether we can still enjoy the thrill of shopping for fashion while doing it consciously and sustainably.
Grace attends the Future Fabrics Expo and learns about the many alternatives to traditional fabrics. From fish materials to yam leaves, she questions whether these could be the future of fashion as we know it.
This timely 6-part series of 5 minute episodes follows vlogger and fashion lover Grace as she explores the many alternatives to fast fashion.
With billions of clothes being produced every year, many young people like Grace are growing increasingly concerned about the impact their shopping habits are having on the planet. Each episode tackles a different area of the fashion industry as Grace searches for what we can all do to use less water, reduce our use of plastic and cut down on wasteful fashion.

I get to finally live my dream as a mermaid with fish fabric.
Since the video explicitly says the fish fabric would be a luxury item, I will assume she agrees that it is not sustainable. But other fabrics such as the seaweed, her pineapple leaves jacket, and others sound interesting enough, we just need more information on how they are collected and produced to see if it's really sustainable or not.
Brilliant interview at 4:00 , her advice on how to get people to demand change was epic and sound.
Can we swim in the fish fabric.
Nope the fishes will take them back
If only hemp clothing was a thing and farmed in mass. Oh right it was once but banned in most places now...
Why was it banned?
@@rdrrdr778 coz it sends people to Mars 😂😂it's Bob Marley's favorite lol

The hemp plant used for fabric do not make people high. Its very sustainable. But is banned in lot o countries because the plant looks like marijuana plant. They are from the same family.
People are making eco friendly fibers from banana, bamboo, sugarcane, hemp, jute, flax, modal, cotton, etc for generations in India. It's not the future and it's not expensive.
The future has to be about reducing consumption of synthetic textile ( and recycling synthetic textile waste ).
For example someone in Europe and North America needs to file a public interest litigation against the use of non woven polypropylene fabrics for the medical industry. Organisations like Kimberly Clark and 3M have approved PP fabrics to be used as disposable gowns and masks for the medical industry. No other fabric can be used.
Machine made synthetic textiles assure large scale production without errors, negligible human resources and opportunity for good profits. The only way to stop that is to stop buying machine made artificial textile products. If no one is buying then why would anyone make it and that too in bulk.
In order to boycott British cloth ( cotton bought for cheap from India and cloth manufactured in Britain's textile mills and sold back to the Indians at a high price... British Raj era) Mahatma Gandhi started the Swadeshi Movement in the 1920's. The business of selling cotton yarn to British Textile Mills was so lucrative that greedy Indian Textile Mill Owners stopped selling cotton yarn to Indian handloom weavers in the late 1800's and early 1900's. This led to boycott of textiles from the British Textile Mills by Gandhi.
Based on the success of the Swadeshi Movement the Indian government enacted a law in 1956 and formed an institution called Khadi Village and Industries Commission (KVIC) in 1957 that promotes self employment, self reliance and income to the rural areas of India through hand woven and hand spun fabrics.
KVIC is a huge government organization and has good quality products that are eco friendly and completely hand made. The world should learn from Indians who truly know and value the importance and impact (ecological, social, economical and political) of handmade / handspun natural fiber textiles.
If you want to buy organic, handmade / handspun and high quality fabric then maybe you can try buying from India. Just beware of fakes.
Thanks for reading !!
During WW II they made shoes from the skin of Plaice, so it's a real possibility to use fish skin in fashion.
(2016 - 2018)= Cow leather
(2019-2020)= fish leather
(2021-2050)= human leather
Organ donor can now register as skin donor. It's possible!
Scary!
😖
Bit of a cheat in that one reply, we should make manufacturers responsible for, and include the cost of cleaning up any waste and pollution into thier products. And that will make thier products more expensive. But that does not make sustainable goods cheaper, only relatively less expensive than the formerly cheap goods. Saying they become affordable is not just inaccurate but reflects a very privileged notion of "affordable".
Why dont we use leaves? Like plant more trees and find a way to harvest the leaves without damaging the tree and its system.
There is a brand that make handbags out of leaves. I found it, the name is Thamon. Is not very accessible because is a unique idea. But maybe in the future.
good , nice anchoring
Did you know Facebook refuses to post this video to Facebook?
It says it’s against community standards.
Those materials pieces is BadAss. Can you see it now . Someone says I like your jacket yes what is that? Guess what fish skin😂🤣😝😜
i love how this shows the same three clips over and over again...
YES to 'PLANT BASED'! - NOOOOOO to ANY "ANIMAL PRODUCTS"! Love the Pineapple, YAM and Sugar Cane. Sugar Cane (Kwazulu-Natal) & Pineapple (Eastern Cape) is easily obtainable in South / Southern Africa. The hard outer cores are ALWAYS thrown away! Great video!!!!
Should be most concerned with how much oil it takes to make these fabrics
thanks this video was perfect because talk about stsuainable fabirc . thanks thanks
The fish of the Amazon are doomed
The whole Amazon is doomed (if we don't do enough to save it)
BEAUTY !
Is that jacket warm. And seriously if you were out when it's cold. Would you be warm?
Define « sustainable »
I dont wanna wear fish.. :/
Sea weed I can get behind and Yam leaf. :)
I have to use this for stupid homework
Nice
This is a genuine question: are leather products considered unsustainable or not environmental friendly? What exactly are we trying to replace by these alternative fabrics?
Think about all the beef we eat... Where does the leather or rather the skin of these animals go?
both, and we're replacing nothing.
this video is the exhibition of stupidity.
The processing of leather is extremely toxic and damaging to the people who make it. Looks it up
No! They TELL you they won't kill the fish just for its leather. Who knows.

I have leathers older than you. In which I don't intend to change.
That's good! It wasn't really specifically targeting leather, just sustainability. If you are still using leather products from decades ago, you're doing good and using your things until you can't anymore :)
Piñatex?
Was expecting Fuligin...
WHY IS THIS AGAINST COMMUNITY STANDARDS ON FACEBOOK?
Animal live matter! If fur is a controversial material, so does fish
Recycled cotton 1000% yes!
Не чего не понял, но было интересно
Тебе объяснить?
Fashion industry concerned about the environment: the solution might be Amazonian fish. The mind of a colonized nation
And thi..
*yEaH*
Beginning from false assumptions yield dysfunctional conclusions.
i don't know what you mean about this, but the assumption being that the consumer can help fight climate change when 100 companies do somewhere between 70 and 90% of the greenhouse gas emissions just ends up punishing the working class for the mistakes of the super rich, putting pressure on our wallets, when the pressure should go on those 100 companies (and indeed, the capitalist system itself) instead.
@@mcFreaki We don't need alternative textiles to make sustainable clothing. Traditional fiber feedstock is more than sufficient for typical needs. Organic cotton has already proven its commercial viability, as has hemp, linen, wool, and silk. This story has a ridiculous premise.
No need for leather at all. Sustainable alternatives have a long history. Why reinvent the wheel?
Besides, where are you going to get fish leather when there are no fish?
😘
You look like vanessa kirby
So no damage to the environment
Just damaging to fish. Uh huh.
What's the circular reasning???
@Jason Tempel what do you mean by fukushima
@Jason Tempel Jason or the son of Ja : explain to me .... you hurt me

How is wearing clothes made out of fish going to help sustain the environment? Where is PETA when you need her? 😊
because the fish skin was going to be thrown away, as waste.
No!
humans destroy wherever they go.
we humans will never learn.
Not happy with this video.
