Grace Lam has spent over 22 years in the fashion industry with a career that saw her launch VOGUE China. Today she works hard to advocate for sustainable causes and leads what she describes as a more meaningful life, one that is not always associated with high fashion but one that gives back to the community and environment whilst inspiring others to do the same. We caught up with her to chat about what sustainability means to her and how she implements this in her everyday life with her family and son Theo.

At Retykle, we support the declutter movement inspired by Japanese tidying expert Marie Kondo however, it irks us how often the discussion is about “throwing away” not mending, repurposing, recycling or donating.

Fast fashion has become somewhat the delinquent within the fashion industry. It's a frenemy we find hard to shake. Seemingly innocent, persuasively it wins us over again and again with fashion-perks often too hard to refuse!
