Episode 2: Camilla Schippa

 

In episode 2 of season 13, I chat with Camilla Schippa, a refreshing figure formidably marrying circular fashion practices with true social impact. A self-proclaimed migrant matriarch, Camilla is the CEO of The Social Outfit, a charitable organization whose mission is to empower refugee and new migrant women through employment and training in one fashion forward movement. Camilla’s story convinces us to think outside the square by not only understanding the power of freedom in our own self-expression but by refreshing our thinking around what real humanity in fashion can look and feel like. And while Camilla’s colourful style is not without it’s sparkle, she is the guiding light in leading a multitude of women towards their own opportunities to shine, with enough glitter and bejewelled glamour to make the whole place shimmer.
