JENNA FLOOD TALKS SLOW FASHION
1.15pm-1.45pm

Jenna is a passionate slow fashion advocate dedicated to helping people understand the issues surrounding fast fashion. She advocates for sustainable alternatives, such as pre-loved, vintage, and clothing made with sustainable practices. Jenna believes in slowing down clothing consumption by curating capsule wardrobes and making long-term investments in clothing rather than following short-lived trends. She envisions a future where more people participate in the sharing economy by renting or borrowing garments instead of owning them.
