  • Resumen

  • Unraveling the global apparel industry with author Maxine Bédat


    Join our conversation with celebrated author Maxine Bédat as we discuss her new book, “Unraveled: The Life and Death of a Garment,” and also explore the activities of The New Standard Institute, where she is Executive Director.

    In her book, Ms. Bédat (who was recently seen on CNN and in Forbes) follows the global path of a pair of jeans from the cotton fields of Texas, to the textile manufacturing centers of Asia, to cut-and-sew operations in Sri Lanka, distribution back to U.S. stores for sale to consumers, to the after-life of garments once they are disposed of and end up in burning trash heaps in countries like Ghana. 

    “Unraveled” is essential reading for anyone in the textile supply chain, from farmers to retailers and consumers worried about the environmental and social impact of today’s globalized textile/garment industry. 

    Hosted by Kristi Ellis of NCTO, and interviewed by Bob Antoshak, Gherzi Organization partner.
