Tear and throw or patch and repair?

In the past we sewed, patched, mended and stuffed. Today, we throw 7.5 kg of clothes and home textiles in the garbage every year. How is it that? What has happened to the value of clothes over time? Adam Norman, textile historian, Kalmar county museum and Elenor Håkansson, Slow Fashion inspiration, talk about how we have looked at and treated clothes in the past and what we do with them now. What can we learn from history and what can the future look like? Welcome to an inspiring and thought-provoking lecture without styluses! Elenor Håkansson is on Instagram with the account barhallable.
