Ali Pearlman, From Journalism to Sustainable Vintage Fashion with Saved By Zero | EP 167

For twenty years, Ali Pearlman worked in the fast-paced world of New York City fashion, using her skills in styling, marketing, and show production with big companies, celebrities, and innovative designers. Then, as a journalist, her thoughtful pieces were featured in The New York Times, New York Daily News, and amNewYork. But it wasn't until 2024 that Ali decided to take her diverse career experiences, love for sustainable practices, and her roots in Los Angeles and start something new. She opened Saved By Zero, a designer vintage boutique in Harrison, NY, aiming to combat fast fashion while promoting real human connections and our shared responsibility towards the planet. A talented stylist, she focuses on moving past temporary trends, highlighting personal style, and showing that vintage can be totally modern. In this episode, Ali shares how she created a space full of unique vintage and designer gems—each with its own story and purpose. Tune in for her insights on shifting careers with intention, building a business based on your values, and bringing vintage fashion into the modern age. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
