ABF + LOVE HERO "CHANGING THE NARRATIVE"

This week ABF interviewed Joshua Scacheri the Founder & Creator of LOVE HERO on what his narrative is, what propels him forward and what holds him back

This month on our ABF socials we are running a competition to win the t-shirt Josh is wearing in the below image. Come on over to our instagram or Facebook for a chance to win this t-shirt, an ABF travel pack and a 3 months subscription for yourself or one of your friends or family members.

ABF:

Let’s start by telling everyone a little bit about your story Josh – how did you get into fashion and what led you to where you are today?

Joshua:

Thank you for having me.

I began my career in sports and transitioned to fashion whilst living in Italy, it had such a profound influence on the way people lived it truly inspired me. I also stayed in the part of Italy famous for designer accessories so I was always surrounded by it. I was taught to make shoes by close friends who had fashion factories that went back generations for the likes of Gucci and Prada. Fashion is a way of life and expression and it inspired me so much I ended up changing careers and here we are today.

ABF:

What is LOVE HERO all about – tell us the narrative behind the label and what current narrative in the fashion industry you are trying to change?

Joshua:

LOVE HERO is a concept dreamt a few years back between my partner Tanja and friend/designer Heather (currently in NY) many moons ago. But life took over, kids + family responsibilities, it was always on the back burner. Last year during Covid I was made redundant as a fashion design + manager for DAKS. When this happened I had some time to revisit what I actually wanted to do. Ultimately working for myself and creating a brand that had meaning and a focus has always been something that has inspired me. A brand with a purpose, a vision and a dream. During this time I had a fantastic opportunity and was cast as a contestant for a show on Amazon prime called Making the Cut (Season 2), presented by Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn. This gave me a platform to launch LOVE HERO and bring it to life.

 ABF:

What has been the hardest thing about getting LOVE HERO off the ground?

Joshua:

The hardest thing about getting LOVE HERO off the ground is ensuring the message has been portrayed correctly and clearly. As we are currently self funded we are also constantly thinking of creative and cost efficient ways to develop the business and make a difference. LOVE HERO is focused on people and the planet, with this comes a responsibly to do everything in a sustainable and ethical way ensuring all processes are transparent, this involves a lot of research and is also much more costly than the traditional fashion model. Only now are consumers showing interest in sustainable practices so it can sometimes be hard to convey the message to really influence people to take note and invest their time and money on an alternative product like ours. We are also very heavily focused on colour and print as we know the positive effects dopamine dressing and colour therapy has, again as some people are used to wearing all black this will take time to influence.

 

ABF:

What are your fears moving forward?

Joshua:

I don’t have fears moving forward, I look at every situation as a challenge to problem solve. The main challenge is finding and aligning with the right people to support innovation and sustainability. Unfortunately online commerce is ever changing and very competitive and it can be hard to be seen amongst other mainstream brands that pump so much capital into marketing.

 Amy Brogan, Director of ABF

ABF:

What are your hopes?

Joshua:

My hopes is for LOVE HERO to become more visible and for our messaging to speak volumes to our consumers relating to sustainable and transparent fashion design and production. I would love to see more people wearing LOVE HERO this gives me the most joy.

ABF:

For you personally, what has been one narrative that you feel has held you back and one that has propelled you forward?

Joshua:

Very good question. A narrative that has held me back has been that fashion is hard, competitive, requires constant capital, it’s fickle and you need to be in a fashion city to make it.

A narrative that propels me forward is “never give up”. I learnt this though being in sports, it pushes me to prove otherwise. In addition I have a personal drive to become successful doing what I love and am passionate about so this also helps propel me forward and keep me focused.

ABF:

Choose one inspiring narrative you like to live your life by.

Joshua:

An inspiring narrative I like to live by is that vision is a dream of an idea. I am all about the journey, the destination is nice but the journey is what counts most. Also…. never give up!

  • It all started with a seemingly golden opportunity – a high-yield Bitcoin investment. I invested in a cryptocurrency startup that looked promising, but I never imagined it would turn into a nightmare. The platform — slick, well-marketed, and with testimonials from seemingly legitimate investors —promised me a 200% return in two weeks. I invested over 7 Bitcoins, worth nearly $500,000 at the time.  The platform’s customer support became elusive, and eventually the platform disappeared. No access, no updates, no sign of the team – just silence, and my heart sank. I had been scammed. I wasn’t alone. across the country and even internationally, victims of the same scam were reporting similar experiences. Fake trading dashboards, forged gains, withdrawal delays, and ultimately, total disappearance. It was a textbook crypto scam—decentralized, anonymous, and nearly impossible to trace, It was a classic crypto scam – decentralized, anonymous, and virtually untraceable, until I discovered Dexdert Net Pro Recovery. Unlike typical recovery agencies that rely on outdated tracing methods or cold legal tactics, Dexdert Net Pro combines advanced blockchain forensics with cyber intelligence and direct collaboration with cryptocurrency exchanges and law enforcement around the world. To recover stolen digital assets — even in the darkest corners of blockchain, when I reached out, the team at Dexdert started with forensic blockchain tracing, uncovering the maze of mixing services, private wallets, and overseas exchanges used to launder stolen BTC. What set them apart was their real-time AI-driven tracing tool that can follow the most obscure trails on multiple chains. Dexdert tracked my stolen BTC through decentralized mixers and shell accounts and identified a batch of BTC that had recently been converted and stored in dormant wallets connected to an unregulated exchange in Eastern Europe. Dexdert successfully recovered my 7 BTC, worth $500,000  after proving its illicit origin -Today, I am an active advocate for proactive recovery services. Without Dexdert Net Pro Recovery, I would have lost everything. Not only did they track down my Bitcoins, they also busted the entire scam network. If you’ve been scammed, don’t give up – contact a professional like Dexdert Net Pro Recovery before the trial runs out.

  • After pouring my hard-earned money into what I thought was a legitimate crypt0currency investment, I watched helplessly as my funds vanished. I, like so many others, fell victim to its deceptive promises. I felt foolish, angry, and, most of all, hopeless. I’d almost resigned myself to the fact that my money was gone forever.

    Then, I stumbled upon Crypt0 Pandemic Hunter. The idea that someone could actually track down and recover stolen digital assets seemed too good to be true and thus hesitant to trust anyone in the crypt0 space. However, I decided to reach out.

    They explained the process in detail, outlining the challenges and offering a realistic assessment of the situation. They didn’t make any guarantees, but their confidence and dedication were reassuring. Crypt0 Pandemic Hunter diligently traced the flow of my stolen assets, navigating the complex web of transactions and addresses. They used advanced blockchain tools and techniques to uncover the perpetrators’ wallets behind the scheme.

    Against all odds, they managed to recover a huge portion of my stolen funds. It felt like a dream. The relief was overwhelming. Crypt0 Pandemic Hunter also provided invaluable support and guidance throughout the entire process. Their timely updates throughout the process also helped keep my mind at ease.

    If you’ve been a victim of a crypt0 scam, don’t give up hope. Reach out to Crypt0 Pandemic Hunter.
