One brilliant example is Marbella Design Academy\u2019s Bachelor of Fashion graduate Brodie Alexandra. A vegan from the age of 14 and vegetarian for life with a passion for ethics and sustainability, Brodie believes in preserving the world we live in and using fashion as a platform to generate interest and intrigue.<\/p>\n

\"whatsAs such she has set up her own label, Alexandra Brodie, making clothes from recycled fabrics and not using any animal products or by-products. Over the past 3 years she has been studying sustainability in fashion in conjunction with her fashion design degree at Marbella Design Academy. Brodie has also just completed an internship with 3to33, a United Nations Nexus project whose aim is to raise awareness to 33 pressing world issues using 33 enlightening short videos. The aim of the campaign was to captivate a mass audience with short powerful videos, each new video increasing in time by one minute until reaching the final 33 minute video. Every eye-catching and captivating costume related to the issues were created by her, as shown here.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nBrodie said, \u201cThe fashion industry is one of the most unsustainable industries, destroying lives, villages, nature and animals. People buy so many products and then just throw them away. I want more people to use sustainable resources in fashion, or even know that it\u2019s an option.\u201d<\/p>\n
