Viva managing editor Amanda Linnell shares highlights from today’s Viva magazine. Follow her hyperlinks and be informed and inspired.
This Friday is Fashion Revolution Day - a day to mark the second-year anniversary of the Rana Plaza factory complex collapse in Bangladesh - and it's inspired us to focus on conscious consumerism. In a world that seems to just get faster, it's good to pause and consider the greaterimpact of our actions - of what we choose to do and wear. In today's issue we share five simple ways to add depth to your wardrobe with a shoot styled by fashion editor Dan Ahwa, featuring some of the best New Zealand-made pieces and thrift shop finds.
As well as looking at the finished products, we talk to the people who make the clothes, shoes and patterns for your favourite local labels. This is a fascinating insight into how the industry has changed over the years.
