Today’s conversation is with creative Dörte de Jesus.
Dorte worked as an art director for boutique design studios and magazines such as ELLE Germany, before she launched the independent, mindful fashion publication Lissome Magazine in spring 2016. Since then, Lissome has organically grown into a core team in Berlin, and a wider international community of writers, photographers and stylists. Its first annual print edition was launched in December this year (2019), and presents a new holistic vision on what sustainable fashion could be.
We chat about:
Dorte’s creative journey.
What holistic beauty looks like, and the role it can play in the transition to a more sustainable world.
Why Dorte decided to turn the Lissome Magazine into a physical print edition.
Why we shouldn’t completely cease producing and buying fashion and other products.
What content the Lissome print magazine presents that makes it different to any other sustainable fashion and design magazine currently out there.
How designers can include elements of beauty within what they create, but still be responsible and mindful toward the Earth and people.
Plus loads more...
We are so excited to bring this conversation to you today. Enjoy!
