In My Shoes | Tiffanie Darke
Tiffanie Darke is a sustainability activist, shopkeeper and fashion writer and author. Formerly the Editor in Chief of Harrods and an editor at the Sunday Times, she stepped away from the world of new season excess and ‘must haves’, instead writing investigative reports and articles exploring how luxury, fashion and sustainability can co-exist more positively and purposefully. A self-labelled ‘climate optimist’, Tiffanie focuses on offering information to empower consumers to make better choices while still enjoying fashion. Tiffanie’s book ‘What to Wear, A Guilt Free Guide to Sustainable Fashion’ was published last year. She is also the co-founder of Agora, a boutique in Ibiza which showcases slow and considered fashion, and runs the newsletter ‘It’s Not Sustainable’. Follow @tiffdarke
