Hung Huang: Sustainable fashion from traditional culture

It’s easy to fall in love with the world of fashion. But it’s hard to accept that it is one of the world’s most polluting industries. The way our fabrics are made and our growing appetites fed by fast fashion, all lead to severe environmental challenges. Hung Huang, a media figure who has covered the industry for 20 years, talks with us to search for a sustainable future for fashion. As ambassador of the Franco-Chinese Month of the Environment, she is a strong believer in that economic growth and eco-protection can go hand-in-hand. If we look closely to today’s aesthetics, sartorial practices inspired by traditional Chinese culture, may hold the answer. (Reporter: Li Wenrui; liwenrui@)
