RethinkRebels BV: Fashion Sustainability Consultancy

Is your brand ready for the responsibility shift? The fashion industry’s rapid growth has doubled the production and consumption of textiles, leading to significant social and environmental challenges. As consumer awareness rises, stakeholders now demand accountability, transparency, and traceability. By 2026, the Digital Product Passport will be mandatory, requiring brands to disclose detailed information about their supply chains and product lifecycles. The EU Green Deal emphasizes the urgency of climate-neutral and circular businesses by 2050. Key regulations such as the CSDDD, CSRD, and Green Claims Directive will require companies to provide verifiable sustainability information, ensuring no room for greenwashing. Brands are also expected to address their environmental impact through risk analysis, supply chain accountability, and the reporting of emissions, waste, and resource usage. Sustainability isn’t a challenge; it’s the future of fashion.

Vandaag las ik een artikel in het Parool dat mij inspireerde tot het schrijven van dit bericht. Al ruim 40 jaar werk ik als creatief in de mode en zie ik met lede ogen hoe de kwaliteit van producten achteruitgaat. Merken als #SHEIN en #Temu staan hier symbool. Hoewel hun businessmodel – eerst testen, dan produceren in bulk – interessant is, blijft goede kwaliteit uit. Het maakt mij rebellestisch 🤛🏼, dat is ook een beetje mijn aard. Gelukkig wordt er volop gewerkt aan alternatieven die bijdragen aan een duurzame toekomst. Met de 100 x 1000 Upcycling Club, een initiatief van RethinkRebels BV: Fashion Sustainability Consultancy en #DCTV, en onderzoeken naar Made to Order, o.a. door mijzelf, zetten we stappen om overproductie te doen verdwijnen ♻️. En heel goed te kijken wat dat verandert voor de keten en voor een bedrijf. Er ligt een uitdaging, maar de kansen zijn enorm. Ik kan niet wachten om nieuwe, innovatieve businessmodellen te verkennen en te helpen realiseren. #Fashion #Upcycling #CreativeConsultancy #RethinkRebels #MadeToOrder Dutch Circular Textile Valley - Textielregie MODINT

As we head into 2025, let’s lead the charge for a more thoughtful fashion industry. As a leading voice in the sustainable fashion movement, Livia Firth emphasizes the urgent need for a fundamental shift in the fashion industry. Her words remind us that sustainability is not just a trend, but a necessary change in the way we operate, from production to consumption. Start integrating upcycling, expanding the use of recycled materials, and encouraging second-hand shopping as part of your brand’s core values. Celebrate with Intention: 🧡 Shift to Circular Practices: Experiment with remanufacturing or repair programs. 🧡 Highlight Quality over Quantity: Prioritize timeless, durable designs over fast fashion. 🧡 Engage Consumers: Educate and inspire your audience to make sustainable choices. This holiday season and beyond, let’s work together to create a fashion future that benefits people, the planet, and the industry. Cheers to conscious choices and impactful celebrations in 2025! 🌍 #SustainableFashion #CircularEconomy #UpcyclingInnovation #ConsciousConsumerism #FashionForTheFuture

We’ve teamed up with Scapino to handle their sustainability management and help them meet CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) requirements. We started with a Double Materiality Assessment to identify the key sustainability impacts and risks for their business. This helped them align with CSRD while covering both financial and environmental aspects. On top of that, we created clear strategies and reporting tools to make their sustainability journey smoother. By embracing CSRD, Scapino is showing real leadership and taking steps toward a more transparent and sustainable future. It’s exciting to see the positive changes this brings! 🌍 If your business is tackling CSRD or sustainability challenges, let’s chat about how we can help. #SustainabilityManagement #CSRDCompliance #CorporateSustainability #DoubleMateriality #SustainableFuture #ESGReporting #BusinessTransparency #EnvironmentalLeadership #SustainabilityJourney #Scapino #SustainabilityGoals Nick Bogaars
