His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales on Fashion and Sustainability

HRH The Prince Of Wales speaks to Edward Enninful, Editor-in-Chief of British Vogue, about his lifelong commitment to sustainable fashion and The Prince’s Foundation’s collaboration with Yoox Net-a-Porter.

In the December 2020 issue of British Vogue, the President of The Prince’s Foundation, HRH The Prince of Wales, is interviewed by editor-in-chief Edward Enninful about The Modern Artisan, a training programme set up by The Prince’s Foundation at Dumfries House.

"It seems to me there are huge opportunities, particularly now, within the whole sustainable fashion sector, to counter this extraordinary trend of throw-away clothing – or throwaway everything, frankly.”

Over the last 18 months, The Prince's Foundation has been collaborating with Yoox Net-a-Porter on a unique training programme designed to strengthen textile skills training in the UK and Italy called The Modern Artisan.
