My guest today is Kristy Barber, the Founder and Designer of Kuwaii.

Established in 2008 as one of Melbourne’s original slow fashion brands, Kuwaii’s values of kindness, respect, honesty, environmental accountability, and empowerment of all people inform how they make their clothes, the people they work with and how they run their business.

The majority of Kuwaii’s product range is Made in Melbourne, and accredited by Ethical Clothing Australia. 

With a perfectly balanced harmony of form and function, the Kuwaii aesthetic is both strikingly simple and intricately precise.

.

Kuwaii’s approach takes more time and is more complex, but the team at Kuwaii know it’s worth it. Everything they do is slower, more deliberate and more intentional.

During this dynamic chat with Kristy, we dive into:

1. What it takes to create a viable, sustainable slow fashion business model
2. Staying true to your vision and values
3. Knowing when to pivot and making the hard calls in business
4. What Kristy sees as the key to longevity in fashion
5. The power of closely connecting with customers and community

And so much more
