ABOUT Conscious Fashion Collective
Conscious Fashion Collective (CFC) is a global community for fashion sustainability professionals and changemakers.
We curate industry-leading conscious fashion organizations, spotlight changemaking creatives and organizations, and offer educational resources that dive deeper into the issues facing the industry — and exploring the potential solutions we can help co-create.
Driven by the belief that we can drive more change when we work collaboratively, we run a membership community for sustainable fashion professionals that shares resources, hosts 4+ live events each month, and cultivates connections.
Here's what we offer in a snapshot:
None of this would be possible without our incredible team! Meet everyone below:
