It’s been very hard to not be overwhelming aware of how many businesses have closed or announced closing in the last 1.5 years, especially small businesses. For awhile it felt like I was seeing something about a brand or store closing every other week. The one that seemed to gain the most press and attention was Mara Hoffman, but she had hired one of the best PR teams out there so that's not surprising. All of this has brought up a lot of dialogue over “sustainable” fashion, making journalists wonder out loud if there is a viable future for the business of “sustainable” fashion and fashion brands.
