Phoebe reveals fascinating insights about changing consumer behavior, the true cost and value of our clothing, and her vision for making circular fashion accessible through both direct-to-consumer and B2B partnerships. It's an inspiring look at how innovation and sustainability can transform not just our closets, but our entire approach to consumption.
