Children’s presenter Konnie Huq hasn’t bought any new clothes for 20 years. And she’d like nothing better than everyone else to follow suit.
But her avoidance of fast fashion isn’t because she doesn’t care about her appearance, it’s because she cares about the planet, and doesn’t want what she wears to negatively affect it, as 85% of textiles end up in rubbish dumps, and 10% of the world’s greenhouse gases come from those dumps (UNECE).
