Wardrobe Crisis
I'm a sustainable fashion communicator. While my core business is our podcast, I also work as an MC and host for sustainability events, and am an experienced workshop facilitator. Our online course platform provides short, accessible courses.

THE WARDROBE CRISIS is a sustainable fashion platform driven by my passion for communication, learning, and sharing knowledge and stories. I love fashion, but I don’t believe clothes can be beautiful if they’re made in an ugly way. Wardrobe Crisis stands for a fairer, greener, cleaner fashion future that respects people and planet and recognises the power of dialogue, listening and learning.

My mission is sustainability knowledge sharing. THE PODCAST is chart-topping podcast launched in July 2017, and is now in its 8th series. Subscribe for free in your favourite podcast app. Each week, I interview designers, change-makers, academics, creatives and fashion insiders about fashion, ethics, social justice and environmental sustainability.

THE ACADEMY is our online courses platform focused on sustainability. It’s unlike anything else out there. We make sustainability education fun and accessible, and providing a framework for taking positive action based on your values.

Circular Centre
REPLACE, REPAIR, REDESIGN, REPURPOSE. STSC manufactures & wholesales 500+ sustainable textiles including low MOQs. Circular design consulting + Circular Textile Waste Service to take-back all forms of textile "waste" via Circular Textile Precincts.

Think of a circular jigsaw where garments + textile resources come in and out of our circular systems to ensure they are made sustainably, plus the "waste" stays local and out of landfill and the resources remain at their highest value for longer.

We REPLACE unsustainable textiles, including a new development CircStretch textile where we have designed out toxic plastic microfibres from stretch clothing. CircStretch blends natural fibres with the world’s first Cradle To Cradle® Products Innovation Institute Gold Level Material Health Certified elastane yarn that is also Certified by the Hohenstein Institute as 100% non-toxic as it breaks down making it safe to home compost.

We offer a smart thread solution to create advanced e-textiles for supply chain management from fibre to "waste" plus QR Code customer engagement linking to existing IT systems for wholesale, transport, data collection then transfer to blockchain when it reaches the Circular Textile Waste Service.

Through our Circular Textile Precincts we train staff to set up our unique circular systems to provide jobs suited to the individuals skillset. We valorise and redistribute via our existing circular streams to keep 100% of the jobs and resources onshore.

Our Circular Textile Waste Service can collect unwearable and unusable garment and textile waste to reuse, repair, redesign and repurpose through four main circular textile systems. Work with us to create circular design systems to inspire your customers and become circular industry leaders.

Value the Citizen
Research and education in systemic, circular and sustainable change for the fashion sector

In 2020 Value the Citizen conducted a research project addressing the lack of Australian-based contextualized research in circular design and product development in the fashion sector. As 80% of a products environmental impact is determined at the design phase, and with 88% of Australian apparel manufacture made up of SMEs, this project focused on the design processes and associated business models of fashion SMEs as an influential group for systems change to the linear take/make/waste fashion model widely operating in Australia.

With a core framework of product stewardship and employing design-thinking strategies; the SME’s in this research are building new design processes, new business models and new relationships around circular purpose. The project goal was a visual, communicative and accessible tool that could be distributed widely to stakeholders for education, a pathway for change and leverage for transformative action.
Importantly, the research identified the need for wider stakeholder support for SMEs and larger enterprise in moving to circular and product stewardship approaches. This takes the form of education of the community and industry; legislation and mandating around the collection and disposal of textile waste; and investment in infrastructure and technologies.

This research and the Design Map and Digital Article developed from this project are tools to support the pathway to circularity in the Australian fashion industry; visually storytelling the complex interrelated relationships and strategies of circularity in an Australian fashion context to the diverse stakeholders involved.
