In this episode, Simi D., Creator and CEO of OKimmi, brings us passion as she speaks into the importance of ecology vs. economy. As a pioneer when it comes to rescuing fashion, she brings new insights into how re-using already made clothing can help save the world. There are multiple ways consumers can create positive change, within fashion. She informs us of many, but the primary two are “ don’t buy new and shop local resale”. Within her brand OKimmi, she pieces together old fabrics from clothing and creates one-of-a-kind wearable, art pieces. She also speaks into Page Up Global, another Simi D. founded brand focused on ecology, asking the people to “page up”. Her energy, knowledge and action illicit creativity.
