Episode description

In this week's Fash-Ed episode, we start out with the ethical and environmental dilemma between real leather and typical faux leather alternatives.  Then, we talk about the exciting new MYLO mushroom leather material created in collaboration with Bolt Threads that's providing hope for a more eco-friendly and less damaging leather future.  This week's small business feature is Life Lovers Magazine. *note* there is a bit of background noise at the beginning of this episode, but I couldn't bring myself to record a 4th time and my pup really wanted to be part of this episode!  Episode Information Sources: https://www.epa.gov/sites/default/files/2020-10/documents/c9s15.pdf https://www.harpersbazaar.com/uk/fashion/fashion-news/a30640996/vegan-leather-sustainability/ https://clothedup.com/vegan-leather-guide/ MYLO: https://www.mylo-unleather.com/ Bolt Threads: https://boltthreads.com/ Life Lovers Magazine: https://www.lifeloversmag.com/ Fash-Ed Instagram: instagram.com/fash.ed  Fash-Ed Email: natalie.labarbera6@gmail.com
