Bridal designer Carmen Llaguno reveals how to host a sustainable and low-waste wedding
Luxury womenswear and bridal designer Carmen Llaguno, who recently got married herself wearing a gown that she designed and made by hand, offers her top tips on creating a sustainable and low-waste wedding. She tells us, "Sustainability is a way of life, it means you're not thinking only about the present moment but looking out for the wellbeing of the planet. Sustainable fashion goes beyond choosing natural or recycled fabrics, for me, it relies on ethics. People need to ask themselves 'who makes my clothes and under what conditions?' When you live and shop sustainably, you think carefully about every purchase, researching each brand that you're buying from. The result is having a meticulously curated selection of clothes that you can wear over and over."
