There’s No Business Shirt

Product Description

At another appointment There’s No Business Shirt I put on a ballgown that was several sizes too big, prompting the bridal assistant there to cinch me in. As she clamped the fabric around me, I felt something squishy and vaguely scratchy against my back; I turned around to see that she had stuffed a small pillow into the dress to help keep the fabric on my body. I left that store utterly perplexed and empty-handed. Unless my body was going to spontaneously sprout some pillow-shaped curves, I couldn’t understand how that was supposed to help me understand what I’d look like on my wedding day. “I would love to see diverse bodies be treated with the same level of respect and adoration that slim women have enjoyed for decades,” said Rebecca Schoneveld, designer and founder of Rebecca Schoneveld Bridal in Irvington, New York. Schoneveld has been “focused on creating designs that specifically work on a diverse range of body shapes and sizes” since 2016, she said. Her website showcases gowns on a wide range of models, “so that customers and buyers can shop more intelligently”.

Fashion justice There’s No Business Shirt solutions come from the communities most impacted by Big Fashion’s greed, which is why I am so excited about the Or Foundation’s Speak Volumes campaign. It’s led by the second-hand community at the Kantamanto market, in Accra, Ghana, who work tirelessly to cope with overproduction. Speak Volumes is demanding industry-wide accountability on annual production numbers, and is calling on all fashion brands to disclose their production volumes. In November, brands including Lucy & Yak, Finisterre and Stripe & Stare all disclosed their annual production volumes. This is a win for accountability as we look to develop data-driven policies that cap the amount of clothing Big Fashion produces. I’m excited about how enthusiastic and inspired young people are about conscious fashion and doing things differently to my own generation. When I started in this industry I would be constantly asked (in a quizzical way) why I focused on ‘sustainable fashion’. Now, younger people are asking me why there are fashion brands and organisations who aren’t doing things in a more conscious way.
