Jasmin Huber On Enjoying High Quality Fashion Without The Impact with WeDress Collective
This is the first episode of a new season of “D Sustainability Issue” which I am very, very excited about! It is 7. September, the moon is in a new moon phase, which is great for new beginnings, and it is my father’s birthday, which seemed like a great day for a launch. This is the very first interview of this season, which is maybe also my favourite one so far, with Jasmin Huber, founder of the fashion rental platform WeDress Collective.
Jasmin is an expert in sustainability, circular economy, and mindful consumption. She has more than 10 years of business experience - from finance to fashion tech. Jasmin wrote her bachelor thesis about sustainability in the European fashion industry and did a master in sustainability and responsible businesses. She’s been working as a consultant and auditor at KPMG Austria, where she established the department circular economy.
In March 2020 she founded WeDressCollective - a fashion rental platform with the vision to build an ecosystem where everyone can enjoy fashion in a sustainable way. With its peer-to-peer rental system, WeDress Collective allows for consuming fashion in a sustainable way, by giving you access to a wide range of clothes and accessories while reducing your environmental footprint. In this way, you can live out your love and passion for fashion without the negative side effects of traditional shopping.
We recorded our interview about two months ago, and since Jasmin has relocated to Germany, where the company is currently expanding. WeDress’s very first campaign (which is so, so great and I cannot wait to see more of) is launching soon - at their first ever WeDress Pop-up Live Experience! Where? In Berlin, Friedrichstrasse 67, from 23 to 29 September (11am - 8pm). Great fashion, panels, music, drinks, and friends are awaiting you - make sure hot to miss it if you are around!
