Fashion Industry: Understand The Sustainability For The Future Of Fashion: Sustainability In Fashion And Textiles (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798546346867)

Fashion plays a major role in the global economy with annual revenues totaling over 1 trillion. However, it is also one of the most resource-intensive industries in the world. What is sustainable fashion and why is it important? Sustainable fashion is about meeting today's needs while ensuring that the way we go about meeting those needs meets future needs as well. If you dig down a little deeper, sustainable fashion is also about benefitting the people involved throughout the fashion supply chain - from farmers to consumers to everyone working in end-of-life facilities such as recycling factories. Why is it so important? It is as simple as it's a matter of life or death. I know that sounds intense but fashion has such a significant impact on communities around the world.
