The Fashion Stitch is a podcast about the hidden stories behind our clothes. Fashion is more than the fabric we wear—it's about people, chemicals, supply chains, culture, and change.

Hosted by author and journalist Clare Press, the podcast explores sustainability in fashion through real stories and deep conversations. From Ghana to Turkey, Los Angeles to Bangladesh, we hear from labor organizers, scientists, activists, and experts working to transform the industry from the inside out.

Across six episodes, The Fashion Stitch unpacks the complex realities woven into our clothes. We dive into how dangerous PFAS in clothing really are and which chemicals it takes to make our clothes. We travel back to 1945 to learn why people queued for nylon stockings for hours—and how that moment connects to the rise of synthetic fibers. We explore whether more manufacturing information can lead to more sustainable purchases, and how repairing and upcycling go beyond fixing clothes to become powerful acts of resistance.

The Fashion Stitch is a podcast for everyone who loves fashion and good stories. Available on October 1st, wherever you listen to podcasts. Subscribe now, so you don’t miss an episode.
