Her Closet Vol. 1: Kayla Wong (王曼喜) & The Art of Choosing Well
Share
很多人都好奇：「Greenies 的衣服到底是從哪裡來的？」 其實答案很簡單——這些衣物來自這座城市中的每一個「你」和「我」。
今天，我們想特別分享一個故事，關於我們尊敬的一位時尚推動者。
Her Closet Vol. 1 - KAYLA WONG 王曼喜
Kayla 不僅是一位 LGBTQ 平權運動者，更經營著道德慢時尚品牌 Basics For Basics (@basicsforbasics)，並擔任多元創意空間 The Wild Lot (@the.wildlot) 的創意總監。
身處時尚產業的她，一直不遺餘力地支持環保運動。她與 Greenies 擁有共同的理念，也是我非常敬重的人。因此，我很榮幸能在我們首個重點活動「Shop Her Closet」中特別介紹她。
「你有什麼想與其他 Greenies 分享的嗎？」
「這是我對可持續時尚的想法。 自從我踏上可持續時尚這條路，我一直堅守著 Vivienne Westwood 的一句座右銘：
『Buy less, choose well, make it last.』（少買，優選，延續。）
這聽起來可能有點老生常談，但老實說，無論在生活的哪個層面，這都是最永續的生活方式。我們應該更注重品質，投資於那些製作精良、且對你個人更有意義的物品。」
現在，你可以在 Greenies 找到 Kayla 的品牌（@basicsforbasics）以及她從衣櫃中精選出的單品。讓我們一起，一件一件地減少城市的紡織廢棄物。
One of the most common questions we get is: "Where do you collect your clothes?" The answer is simple. We collect them from people all around this city—people just like you and me.
Today, we are thrilled to kick off our new series with a story that truly inspires us.
Her Closet Vol. 1 - KAYLA WONG
Kayla Wong is a powerhouse: an LGBTQ activist, the founder of the ethical slow fashion brand Basics For Basics (@basicsforbasics), and the creative director behind the hybrid creative space, The Wild Lot (@the.wildlot).
She has always been a vocal advocate for environmental protection, especially within the fashion industry where her profession lies. She is a role model who shares the deep values we hold at Greenies. It is my absolute honor to feature her in our very first edition of Shop Her Closet.
"Is there anything you would like to share with other Greenies out there?"
"Here are a few thoughts on my journey. Since I started in sustainable fashion, there is one motto I always stick to, famously said by Vivienne Westwood:
'Buy less, choose well, make it last.'
It might sound cliché, but honestly, it is the best way to live sustainably in any aspect of life. It’s about focusing on quality and investing in pieces that are well-made—pieces that hold meaning for you."
You can now shop her brand (@basicsforbasics), as well as pre-loved items from her personal closet and many others at Greenies. Join us in reducing the city's textile waste, one item at a time.
