#Ad paid and presented by TESTEX Coline Ballet Baz spends up to twelve hours a day on the mountain in conditions that test everything she wears. For her, clothing isn't a fashion choice it can facilitate her career as a professional free skier and outdoors person. In a Zurich-based laboratory, textile technician Ari Sacipi is stress-testing garments to see what they're really made of. Together with TESTEX circularity expert Marlène Maury, they're working to build something that many feel the fashion industry has long needed: a credible, independent way to measure whether a garment is genuinely durable, repairable and recyclable. This film is part of the Fashion Redressed II series presented by the Global Fashion Agenda and produced by @bbcstoryworks. Don't miss the rest of the Fashion Redressed II series, showcasing the people changing the industry from the inside out.
