ProtegoCast Season 2 Episode 5: Animal-free Fashion in the Wizarding World

Nov 10, 2021

In this week’s mini-episode, Ali and Emma are joined once again by Kathryn Henzler, co-founder and Executive Director of the Protego Foundation, translator, and fashion designer! 

 

 Also in this episode: 

 

1. Examples of non-vegan materials used in clothing in the wizarding world and Muggle world
2. Animal-friendly alternatives to these materials (and what these might look like in the wizarding world) 
3. Which charms would be most useful to use on clothing if Kathryn had the chance?
4. Tips for animal-friendly cosplays!

We’ll return soon for another episode exploring animal rights in the Wizarding World, but in the meantime, be sure to send us your thoughts via email, leave a review, join our Patreon, and, on behalf of all magical creatures, Protego Maxima!
