The Shapes United’s Post

‼️ Join Remake next Monday, June 3rd at 9:00 am PT / 12:00 pm ET for our monthly Community Call! This month we're kicking off our annual #NoNewClothes Challenge! From June 1st to September 1st, join Remake's global community as we challenge ourselves to press pause on the purchase of new clothing, and instead reflect on how to address overconsumption and remake the fashion industry as a force for good! By challenging yourself to buy 'no new clothes' - whether that's not buying anything at all, or prioritizing re-use and secondhand, you decide! - you will reduce your carbon footprint, build healthy psychological habits, limit the waste you send to landfill, and keep your hard-earned dollars from companies that don't provide their garment workers living wages or safe working conditions. 👥 We will be joined by: 🌟 Ginger Zee is the chief meteorologist at ABC News, reporting on the nation’s weather on “Good Morning America” and across ABC News broadcasts and digital platforms. She is also in her 2nd year of #NoNewClothes, starting her sustainable fashion journey with Remakes 2022 #NNC Campaign! You can read more about Ginger and her connection with her clothing in People Mag. 🌟 Cassandra Pintro is a Remake Fellow & Editorial Operations Manager at GQ, focusing on all things digital. Her many avenues of creative storytelling are all made possible through a natural talent of listening and reacting with intention. Pintro advocates for dismantling the “this or that” mindset by embedding cultural and social impact as an unwavering commitment, transcending it beyond a mere choice. Utilizing a digital-first strategy, Pintro is focused on engaging the next generation of decision-makers and consumers at the highest level, meeting them on where they are. Her overarching vision is to cultivate a digital ecosystem and business strategies that seamlessly integrate and prioritize culture from inception to fruition. Ultimately, Pintro is reimagining ways to continuously make impact “cool” as a foundation in any business 🔗 Click to learn more and grab the call link: https://ow.ly/ZLAP50S2Yug

Are we done talking about Mary's Boots yet? There were some folks arguing in my comments on another app but I stand firm on my opinion and I am about to get back to some other topics. I didn't post a lot about the Met Gala this year but I did watch the live stream on the clock app. As usual there was some outfits that were works of art and others looked like they missed the theme. A word I did kept hearing throughout the night is one that we thought may have been a buzzword in the past but looks like this is now embedded in our everyday. Sustainability. Stella McCartney stood out especially as she highlighted her looks for the night and how all of the diamonds were sustainably sourced. Two weeks ago my company hosted a 2 hour session for the whole company ( employees across 27 countries) to make sure we all knew the focus being put on making sure our suppliers are implementing sustainable practices. Even in supply chain this topic has been added. Question for my business owners? Is this something you are implementing and sharing with your clients and customers? #sustainability #supplychain

🌟 Having a positive impact means being BOLD! Boldness requires taking a stand for what you believe in and living up to those beliefs. Stella McCartney's Summer 2024 campaign, starring the fearless eco-activist and actor Cara Delevingne, is definitley that! Shot amidst the stark reality of the Veolia recycling plant, this campaign confronts us with the uncomfortable truth of fashion's footprint. But it's not just about highlighting problems. Stella's collection, comprising 95% conscious materials, transforms the narrative of waste into one of wonder, showing us the untapped beauty of recycling and repurposing. It's certainly a bold movement toward sustainability. 💡 But perhaps the true boldness is redefining what luxury means in today’s world? #purpose #marketing #brand #brandstrategy #positiveimpact
