Bibi Russell, Fashion for Development, 2011, Colombia, Weaving Dreams

Love these quotes about Bibi: “She has a great capacity to teach with love.” “She is unassuming and committed.”

And I also appreciate her closing quote: “Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Africa, they have lot of heritage and culture, they could do wonderful things, but they have [a] lot of poverty.

But fashion could do, using their skills, using their heritage, making them a sustainable income, could make social-economical development.”
