Meet Ýr Jóhannsdóttir - Iceland's Most Exciting Knitwear Provocateur
Manage episode 291110295 series 2151306
How big is sustainable fashion in Iceland? You might be surprised to find out.
We also nearly called this Episode: The Secret Lives Of Sweaters. Listen and you will see why!
In this fascinating, surprising conversation about funny jumpers and changing the world, you will meet Ýr Jóhannsdóttir - a textile designer, artist/activist upcycler from Reykjavik.
With her label Ýrúrarí (and her huge Instagram following) she is making a name for herself using creativity and humour to challenge fashion's unsustainable ways.
People want to have fun with fashion, she says, and if we can use that to get a serious message across, that's a powerful thing. Also up for discussion: Iceland's craft and wool tradition, appreciating the local, resourcefulness, tool libraries and the future of fashion as sharing.
This is part of our "pass the podcast" mic series - the (extended) finale! Where we're telling listener stories. Love it? Please help us spread the word. If you can rate & review in Apple, we'd be grateful.
