The make-take-waste paradigm of fast fashion explains much of the producer and consumer behavior patterns towards fast fashion. The evolution from a two-season fashion calendar to fast fashion, characterized by rapid product cycles from retailers and impulse buying by consumers, presents new challenges to the environment, workplace and labour practices. This book provides a comprehensive overview of new insights into consumer behaviour mechanisms in order to shift practices toward sustainable fashion and to minimize the negative impacts of fast fashion on the environment and society. Concepts and techniques are presented that could overcome the formidable economic drivers of fast fashion and lead toward a future of sustainable fashion. While the need for change in the fashion industry post-Rana Plaza could not be more obvious, alternative and more sustainable consumption models have been under-investigated. The paucity of such research extends to highly consumptive consumer behaviours regarding fast fashion (i.e. impulse buying and throwaways) and the related impediments these behaviours pose for sustainable fashion. Written by leading researchers in the field of sustainable fashion and supported by the Textile Institute, this book evaluates fashion trends, what factors have led to new trends and how the factors supporting fast fashion differ from those of the past. It explores the economic drivers of fast fashion and what social, environmental and political factors should be maintained, and business approaches adopted, in order for fast fashion to be a sustainable model. In particular, it provides consumer behaviour concepts that can be utilized at the retail level to support sustainable fashion.

Did you know that over 300,000 tonnes of clothing are sent to landfill in the UK alone every year? And that the industry's carbon emissions are bigger than the world's flight and shipping footprints combined? But, it's OK... YOU CAN MAKE A CHANGE In this book, you'll find 101 simple tips and tricks you as an individual can do in your everyday life to shop better and help save the planet. Governments, retailers and organisations around the world are finally starting to take action, but while we wait, let's get started. In this proactive illustrated book, you'll find 101 simple ways to change your spending habits covering: - SHOPPING: e.g. unless you live within walking distance of the shop, buy online! Delivery vans act like public transport for clothes so are much better for the environment than us driving to shops individually. - BUYING e.g. think 30 - would you wear this at least 30 times? - WEARING e.g. don't overfill your washing machine! It causes your clothes to rub together so they fade faster. - REUSING e.g. upcycle old clothes with new buttons or even embroidery if you're crafty. We've said NO to plastic, it's time to say the same to fast fashion.

Despite an abundance of research results, there is no comprehensive reference source that covers the state-of-the-art findings on both theoretical modeling and empirical resea
