Black and white summer style diary
Within a few days the Slow Fashion Season will start. During these three months 10.000 people have committed themselves into not buying anything new.

What is this #whomademyclothes movement? After Rana Plaza collapsed six years ago, our whole global community was in shock. The factory was labelled unsafe the day before, however, the bosses of the factory forced people to go inside and work, because they would have been fired otherwise. Almost 1200 people died in this horrific accident. …
Thoughts upon satisfaction
When was the last time you were bored? I haven’t been bored for quite a while now. And as much as I am enjoying this rush and this great time where I’m able to do a lot of different things all the time, it also makes me a little worried. I have written about this …
We need a revolution

The importance of working together – Project Cece
