As with fashion, I think my style is storytelling, as to me that\u2019s the most beautiful thing about an item: being able to talk about where I found it, how long I\u2019ve had it and the stories that are woven into it.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do you feel your fashion style influences your interior design decor?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>My work in fashion has made me all the more conscious of the homeware items that I give a home to, so overall I really don\u2019t buy that much and prioritise secondhand and vintage furniture wherever possible. Like with my clothes, I have a few hand-me-down pieces from my family and I love to think that I\u2019m adding to their stories. I also have old items from IKEA which inspire me to put extra pressure on them to <a href=\"https:\/\/cleanclothes.org\/campaigns\/the-accord\">protect their workers<\/a>, while celebrating these pieces in a bid to honour the people who made them.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-95974 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/32E602C2-3DA5-4B92-A728-A5C85B40C5BE-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/32E602C2-3DA5-4B92-A728-A5C85B40C5BE-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/32E602C2-3DA5-4B92-A728-A5C85B40C5BE-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/32E602C2-3DA5-4B92-A728-A5C85B40C5BE-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/32E602C2-3DA5-4B92-A728-A5C85B40C5BE-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/32E602C2-3DA5-4B92-A728-A5C85B40C5BE-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/32E602C2-3DA5-4B92-A728-A5C85B40C5BE-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Do you see any similarities in the (fast)fashion and (fast)furniture industries?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Unfortunately, yes. Corporations are churning out more homeware than citizens need, which are being made in exploitative conditions so although fast furniture may seem as though it\u2019s more \u201caffordable\u201d than ever, the true cost is much higher. Like fashion, it\u2019s extracting resources from the planet, adding to harmful carbon emissions and due to the high production rate and accessible price point, we\u2019re buying more than ever, meaning we\u2019re wasting more than ever &#8211; in the UK alone, we\u2019re throwing out nearly 70 million items of furniture each year. There is important nuance here: due to austerity and the rapidly worsening housing crisis, young people are unable to buy their own home, meaning we have more renters moving between furnished and unfurnished properties of differing sizes and furnish requirements, meaning there\u2019s more need to buy into fast homewear, especially when you take into consideration access to second hand furniture and the shipping costs required.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What shocked you most when researching the environmental impacts of furniture?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>That IKEA is no stranger to an H&amp;M collaboration, and that both their CEOs think they\u2019re doing brilliant work to protect the planet \ud83d\ude42 We need Fast Furniture to be more transparent about where they are producing, ensure their factories are audited externally to protect their workers. They also need to be transparent about how much they\u2019re producing and we need legislation to ensure there are caps on how much they\u2019re able to produce, as well as ensuring the materials are sourced responsibly.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tell us about some of your favourite pre-owned finds and the stories behind them.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>My husband bought me an up-cycled iron clothing rail on eBay for Christmas a few years ago. Each month, I add about 5 items of my existing wardrobe to it that I want to get more wear out of and style up in fresh ways. I know I\u2019m going to have it for life. Placed near it, I have a long mirror on wheels which is from the 1930s. I was searching for the perfect mirror for the longest time and was so excited when I found one in a vintage shop! Finally, I recently found a gorgeous mid century Danish chair on Vinterior &#8211; which is now my reading chair! It sits next to a decade old IKEA side table, a tall bookcase that I was given for my 18th birthday, a second hand and vintage onyx coffee table and a rug that was handed down to me by my mum as a wedding present.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-95975 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DEE5C583-E9D5-40E9-BCF1-FD96047EA602-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DEE5C583-E9D5-40E9-BCF1-FD96047EA602-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DEE5C583-E9D5-40E9-BCF1-FD96047EA602-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DEE5C583-E9D5-40E9-BCF1-FD96047EA602-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DEE5C583-E9D5-40E9-BCF1-FD96047EA602-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DEE5C583-E9D5-40E9-BCF1-FD96047EA602-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.vinterior.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DEE5C583-E9D5-40E9-BCF1-FD96047EA602-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>What advice would you give when buying interiors?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I think it starts by celebrating what you already own. When I first learnt about the impacts of fast homewear, I was tempted to throw away my plant pots, tables and vases that I bought from Sainsbury\u2019s home line, but it\u2019s really important to treasure them. These items are our responsibility (we bought them, after all) so if you have something that needs a new lease of life, try giving it a fresh lick of paint, re-upholstering it, adding a cover to it, or upcycling it (check out YouTube tutorials if you\u2019re stuck for inspiration). If you really don\u2019t want to keep something, use a resale platform to re-sell it, as giving it to a charity shop could mean that it ends up as landfill.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What advice would you give when buying pre-owned?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I think it helps to get to know your own style. I love vintage interior books to find inspiration &#8211; and of course Pinterest. Try to only invest in pieces that will truly stand the test of time. It takes time and patience, but there are many gems to be found, and fortunately we have Vinterior which is an absolute treasure trove of pre-loved and upcycled pieces!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meet broadcaster and slow fashion campaigner Venetia La Manna.
