Resonance

Individuals are currently doing about as much as you could ask for in terms of reducing consumption: no air travel, much fewer car trips, less take-away and home delivery food, etc. Carbon emissions have dipped but not by much. Individual action is not the answer

Resonance has been named an honoree in @FastCompany “World Changing Ideas”. Check it out. fastcompany.com/90492140/world…

Proud to be featured in @voguebusiness today on our #noinventory approach to the future of the fashion industry. Enormous thanks to @BinkleyOnStyle for the spot-on (as ever) reporting. voguebusiness.com/fashion/fashio…

Don’t Waste A Crisis: A must-read this morning in @Entrepreneur on the future of the fashion industry by our chairman and co-founder @lawrencelenihan entrepreneur.com/article/348917

This is one reason why we need to move toward no inventory to save the industry.

Morning Zoom: As of today, our factory in the DR has re-opened to make masks for the community and first responders. We cannot say enough about this incredible team. First up @CostelloTaglia. Next up? Could be you.

“Identifying sustainable business models for the #cotton industry requires a new #economicsystem.” @sallyuren discusses the next phase of the #Cotton2040 initiative, with renewed funding from @Laudes_Fdn, in an interview with @ecotextile ecotextile.com/2020040225914/…

Thank you to @TechCrunch for covering the tech response to COVID-19. At Resonance, we wanted to find ways to be a part of this fight—this was a start. There is more to come. techcrunch.com/2020/03/26/pri…

Update: Our sewers in the DR have taken another 500 masks door-to-door in their community this week.

Update: Our teams at Resonance have sewn and distributed over 1000 face masks in the Dominican Republic. And they were back at it this morning.

Our factory is down in the Dominican Rep but we are distributing material to local sewers with instructions (in Spanish) for assembly and distribution in their communities. Working on a solution for masks and gowns in US Instructions for homemade mask below @creationdriven

We put to a simple set of instructions and video at Resonance so even the non-sewers of the world (ahem) can join the fight against COVID-19. Check out MakeAMask.one today.

Due to the shortage of masks everywhere, including our home in the DR, we are distributing fabric from our factory and instructions to sew a mask—plus a video to come.

Workers asked to stay home because of coronavirus need emergency protections and full sick pay guaranteed. We bailed out the banks in a crisis, and so the government must be prepared to do the same for families.

Thanks to @FastCompany for covering our latest collaboration. When we talk about sustainability, no excess inventory has to be table stakes. @RebeccaMinkoff fastcompany.com/90471002/where…

Statement of fact: The fashion industry creates too much inventory. Too much waste. We don’t need to “think” they do. We know. amp.theguardian.com/environment/20…

You know what a great “trend predictor” is? Don’t make it unless a customer buys it. You tackle inventory issues by ending them. @lawrencelenihan @optian @CarolinePalmer voguebusiness.com/sustainability…
