With toxic being the Oxford dictionary word of 2018, describing our communities and the environment worldwide, one can wonder how to approach sustainability within the context of fashion in our era.
My name is Danielle Keller Aviram, I am a sustainable jewelry and fashion researcher, consultant and designer. I graduated an M.A focusing on sustainability in fashion at AMD Berlin after doing my B.A in jewelry and accessories design in “Shenkar” Tel Aviv and having my own international fine jewelry brand operating for 5 years. At some point I started questioning as a designer every thing that I made and this led me to focus on sustainability on top of all the other skills I acquired during my professional path. For me sustainable fashion is thinking about garments as ongoing products with a continuous life span. In the reality that we are now facing I believe that we can’t afford to create and wear products that would become waste at some point.
