Winifred Robinson speaks to the fashion designer, Henry Holland, about the amount of plastic in our clothes. The most popular outfit in Britain today - a t-shirt, jeans and trainers - contains the same amount of plastic as 25 bottles. While people worry now about single-use plastic bottles and bags and drinking straws, nine out of ten have no idea that there's plastic in their clothes. The findings are from a study published today by ASDA Opticians about people's attitudes to sustainable fashion. First broadcast on You & Yours, 29 August 2019.
