“Imagine a future where fashion is crafted with purpose at every decision—where shorter supply chains, culturally rooted practices, and the use of alternative planet-friendly materials become the norm.

 

This means tackling overproduction, turning our backs on toxic dyes and materials, committing to durability, and ensuring that what is created is built to last and can be safely integrated back into fashion supply chains. I believe that radical and honest progress towards a regenerative fashion ecosystem demands open-source collaboration within the industry and a shared commitment to reimagining the future of fashion.”

“Fashion supply chains are responsible for a large percentage of global greenhouse gas emissions and are intrinsically linked to fossil fuel industry as more than 50 per cent of fibres today are synthetic. Despite leading brands signing the UN Fashion Charter, their current progress is not on track and likely to miss the 1.5-degree Celsius target.  


While it is important to recognise and commend the incremental steps taken towards positive changes in the fashion industry, it is also crucial to note that today we need radical and disruptive actions to build meaningful impact on the ground.”
