The 13th episode was recorded remotely with Sandra Niessen, who is the first fashion scholar to point out the need for decolonizing fashion. She is an independent researcher, scholar, and organizer based in the Netherlands, and a member of the Research Collective for Decolonizing Fashion (RCDF) that was established in 2012 to disrupt persistent Eurocentric and ethnocentric underpinnings of dominant fashion discourse. I reached out to Sandra last fall, when I was organizing my workshops on decolonizing fashion studies and fashion history in Denmark and Germany, and I was happy to find out that Sandra is also a fellow Canadian. We have since began collaborating on several publications and expanding our networks. It has been a pleasure to get to know Sandra and her work, and I feel very honoured that she took the time to record this episode with me.
