Reviews

Handy and easy-to-follow guide ... A lot of books on minimal living tend to be preachy, but I loved the kindness Olivia displays ... A beautiful read.

—— Women's Way

An incredibly thoughtful, must-read guide to future-proofing our wardrobes and most importantly the planet [...] Loved Clothes Last will change the way you see your wardrobe and how our day to day actions impact the environment

—— Kenya Hunt, Fashion Director, Grazia UK

The most timely book you'll read this year. We all know that the people who make our clothes are mistreated and underpaid, and we all feel a free-floating anxiety about it. But what to do? This brilliant, witty, eye-opening book will tell you

—— India Knight

This book is a must read for anyone who wants to understand the fashion industry as an outsider and wants direction as to where we go next. The industry is often shrouded in mystery and this book breaks it down in bite size pieces

—— Aja Barber, writer, activist and fashion consultant

An indispensable guide to the ethical and sustainable fashion resistance, from the woman who helped launch it into the stratosphere

—— Elizabeth L. Cline

Loved Clothes Last walks the small steps we can take to stop participating in this throw away culture. She talks of clothes as our "chosen skin" [...] With a needle we sew and repair clothes, but also the tears and ruptures in our relationship with nature and society. Read her book to bring love and beauty, uniqueness and permanence back in your life

—— Dr Vandana Shiva, scholar, author, environmental activist, and food sovereignty advocate

Congrats Orsola on crafting such a complex far reaching and urgent global issue into a helpful inspiring book with simple steps that we can all commit too and benefit from straight away

—— Melissa Hemsley, author and columnist for British Vogue

This book is the culmination of Orsola's lifetime of experience as a clothes healer, a mender, a designer, a radical thinker and a constant source of inspiration. She is a true pioneer, the Queen of Upcycling, an unending source of brilliant advice and truly creative ideas that will literally turn the way you think about fashion and your relationship with your clothes upside down

—— Tamsin Blanchard, Fashion Journalist and author

Loved Clothes Last serves as a wonderful antithesis to the idea that fashion is inherently bad. Showing us the problems that we are facing, however, showing us even more solutions and ways to individually, and collectively, make a change

—— Wilson Oryema, artist and writer

Always a fan of Orsola, her thinking & doing. You'll not want to put her new book down!

—— Safia Minney, MBE, Founder People Tree, Author & Climate Activist

A high energy book which brings powerful ideas of change to a new audience

—— Professor Kate Fletcher, Centre for Sustainable Fashion, University of the Arts London

This is such a progressive step for humanity! Orsola makes changing our consumption habits and saving our planet a fun and doable practice. With all the glaringly obvious facts, how can we not take part in the fashion revolution? Yes to mending, repairing and rewearing!

A helpful inspiring book with simple steps that we can all commit too and benefit from straight away

I'm a huge admirer of Orsola and her work. I love this book's mindful approach to looking after our clothes, giving us the tools to love them for longer and show respect to the people who made them

—— Venetia La Manna 'Slow fashion campaigner, broadcaster and co-founder of Remember Who Made Them'

Hands down Academic Couture. Loved Clothes Last is a beautifully constructed and eloquently written masterpiece. Orsola weaves the importance of the cultural influence of the fashion industry, how it's destroyed us and how it can save us with the economic and environmental impact on people and planet, the beauty of buttons and how to darn a sock, she successfully interlaces "why we wear" with "why we should care

—— Patrick Duffy

Orsola represents both radical grace and graceful radicalness. This book is a super inspiring how to guide for all of us that want to emulate her

—— Alice Jay, activist and conservationist
