Book Description

At heart, this book aims to inspire fearless innovators committed to spearheading the future of fashion. It is for all of us looking to make a positive impact in an industry that we love and care about. It is increasingly acknowledged that the practice of design is not exclusive to designers, nor is it found only in studios. The materials, garments, services, shows, supply chains and stores that make up the fashion industry all work the way they do because of innumerable design decisions, made by creatives all over the world. Circular design goes far beyond rethinking single products or services, it has the potential to redefine how the entire fashion system operates. It's a chance for anyone in the fashion industry - regardless of job title - to support the shift to a circular economy where, by design, waste and pollution are eliminated, products and materials are circulated, and nature is regenerated. Circular design is a pioneering practice of design. It is the creative opportunity of the coming decade for the creatives, innovators, and pioneers who seek to reshape the fashion industry.

Book Description

The alarming level of greenhouse gases in the environment, fast depleting natural resources and the increasing level of industrial effluents, have made every single manufacturing activity come under the scrutiny of sustainability. When all kinds of waste such as clothes, furniture, carpets, televisions, shoes, paper, food wastes etc. end up in the landfill, only a few of them are naturally decomposed and thus a large majority remains as non-biodegradable. It is for this reason, efforts are concentrated to reduce the burden on earth by this waste, and as far as used textile products are concerned, there are now attempts to recycle or up-cycle. This book addresses the role of sustainability by using textile waste in fashion and textiles with respect to manufacturing, materials, as well as the economic and business challenges and opportunities it poses. This wide-ranging book comprises 19 chapters on the various topics including: · Solutions for sustainable fashion and textile industry · Agro and bio waste in the fashion industry · Innovating fashion brands by using textile waste · Waste in handloom textiles · Business paradigm shifting: 21st century fashion from recycling and upcycling · Utilization of natural waste for sustainable textile coloration · Circular economy in fashion and textile from waste · Future pathways of waste utilization for fashion · Sustainable encapsulation of natural dyes from Plant waste for textiles · Agro-waste applications for bio-remediation of textile effluent

Book Description

Circular economy principles are driving to overcome the challenges of today’s linear take-make-dispose production and consumption patterns through keeping the value of products, materials, and resources circulating in the economy as long as possible.

Book Description

When we talk about circularity, we often focus only on environmental impact issues. Circular Fashion Management adds social and governance (ESG) to this approach, providing insight and helping to create a culture of circularity specific to the fashion industry. The ‘E’ of environmental is presented through the fight for textile waste resources and the focus on the path to net-zero fashion. The ‘S’ of social is described as the need to integrate social sustainability into circular fashion supply chains. The ‘G’ of governance for circularity is also presented in detail. The book’s holistic approach is complemented by chapters on traceability, regulations and policies for circular fashion, the need for better market surveillance of textile products and the dangerous role of greenwashing. Among the opportunities and challenges discussed, the need to include small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), a key part of the industry, in this discussion becomes clear. Building on the work of the Monitor for Circular Fashion research observatory at SDA Bocconi, the book brings together 27 experts on traceability, sustainability and circularity in fashion to share their ideas, perspectives and tools with the aim of catalyzing change for a more sustainable future.
