The production, use and eventual disposal of most clothing is environmentally damaging, and many fashion and textile designers are becoming keen to employ more sustainable strategies in their work. This book provides a practical guide to the ways in which designers are creating fashion with less waste and greater durability. Based on the results of extensive research into lifecycle approaches to sustainable fashion, the book is divided into four sections: source: explores the motivations for the selection of materials for fashion garments and suggests that garments can be made from materials that also assist in the management of textile waste make: discusses the differing approaches to the design and manufacture of sustainable fashion garments that can also provide the opportunity for waste control and minimization use: explores schemes that encourage the consumer to engage in slow fashion consumption last: examines alternative solutions to the predictable fate of most garments – landfill. Illustrated throughout with case studies of best practice from international designers and fashion labels and written in a practical, accessible style, this is a must-have guide for fashion and textile designers and students in their areas.

Fascinating and timely, Historical Perspectives on Sustainable Fashion examines progressive fashion through a historical lens, encouraging readers to question the state of the industry and demonstrating the value of historical insights in enabling and inspiring change.

Sustainable Wardrobe gives you everything you need to cultivate a more sustainable, ethical and planet-friendly wardrobe that is still easy, accessible and affordable! Statistics show that how we are consuming, maintaining and discarding our clothing is having a devastating effect on the planet. There are problems with every part of the cycle and they won't be fixed overnight. So what can we actually do to make a difference? The answer is that if we all take small steps to improve our habits, it would collectively result in a big change, and this book teaches us exactly how to do this! Sophie Benson, a journalist specialising in sustainable fashion, will guide you through – breaking down the issues and explaining how we can mitigate them at home: from the clothes we purchase, to the way we care for them, to how we dispose of them. With easy tutorials to follow (how to read a label and have a conscious closet clear out, upcycling hacks, how to darn socks and how to care for your jeans), Sophie will show you that small changes in habit can result in a more sustainable, eco-friendly wardrobe without breaking the bank.

Can fashion be sustainable? Not even the fashion world can afford to shirk this now inevitable challenge. Global luxury groups invest in sustainable brands, mass retail companies sell garments made of eco-friendly fibres, small designer firms reuse castoffs and scraps within the aesthetics of sophisticated high fashion, social responsibility is cool even for marketing people, and enduring artisan quality is once more at a premium. In this book experts from various fields pick their way through a minefield of contradictions with the help of cases studies. They explain how we are experiencing an inevitable, lasting and deep paradigm shift in consumer culture. Successful sustainable fashion reappraises material and production elements without neglecting aesthetic and symbolic aspects, the favourite themes of the haute couture industry. It also promises a way out of the economic shifting sands dragging down Italian fashion today. This book is for people involved in the fashion business, couture aficionados and students in fashion design schools, the would-be protagonists of tomorrow's trends.

Including interviews with eco-fashion designers, Sustainable Fashion will appeal to students and scholars of fashion, as well as students of design, history and cultural studies.
