Fashion’s Future and the Path to Net Zero.

Zalando

In this episode, Janine sits down with Elizabeth Carttar, Head of Sustainability at Zalando, to discuss the company’s ambitious sustainability goals and how we all need to help build a more responsible fashion industry.

With Zalando pushing for net zero emissions by 2050, Elizabeth explains the crucial role of circularity in extending the life cycle of fashion products.

The episode covers fashion’s value-shift towards sustainability, how we need to engage customers in sustainability discussions, the role of innovative materials in responsible fashion, and why collective action is essential to achieving our long-term environmental goals. 

Elizabeth’s three “Pieces of Me” all come with stories that reflect her passion for sustainability, including a pair of her grandmother's earrings, a set of building blocks and a unique, prototype piece of fashion.
