Hello Sustainable Friends,

I caught up with the brilliant Daniela de Sá, a fourth-generation Portuguese luxury footwear designer who’s revolutionising fashion through sustainability, innovation, and heritage.

As the founder of Najha Fashion, Daniela is blending her family’s shoemaking legacy with cutting-edge recycled materials to create high-fashion shoes that honour both the planet and tradition.

In this episode, we explore:

How luxury and sustainability can co-exist
The role of tech in transforming fashion
What it means to carry legacy forward with purpose
Her work as a private label developer and adviser to upcoming designers
How to apply lessons learned for continued growth

Daniela’s story is a masterclass in conscious creativity and global impact. Visit www.NajhaFashion.com

🎧💚 Please listen, enjoy, like, and share to spread the movement!
Let’s act sustainably, boldly, and together.

Warmly,

Toks
