🎙️ Episode 7 – Couture with a Conscience: Moon Chang’s Planet-First Aesthetic
This week, The Ethical Stitch spotlights a truly provocative voice in sustainable luxury fashion: designer Moon Chang, the mind behind the fashion label Moon Chang NY.
From developing designs for NASA (yes, that NASA) to crafting genderless faux-fur couture that challenges everything we know about fashion, Moon is shaking up the industry with bold storytelling and a conscience-first mindset. Her work is raw, sculptural, emotional—and always rooted in sustainability.
Moon opens up about the deeper layers of her creative process, including the unexpected muse who’s been at her side for it all: her male black bulldog, a symbol of resilience, softness, and style in her evolving narrative.
In this episode, we explore:
♻️ What sustainability looks like when you don’t play it safe
🐾 How her bulldog sparked an entire luxury petwear movement
🪐 Collaborating with NASA on forward-thinking fashion innovation
🧵 The role of grief, empathy, and ethics in design
❌ Why Moon refuses to compromise between fantasy and function
Moon Chang isn’t just dressing the future—she’s designing it with radical transparency, next-gen textiles, and a commitment to pushing couture out of its comfort zone.
