Dedicated Sustainability Report 2023 We’re Dedicated to changing the industry norm but there’s still a lot of work to be done to minimize our impact. We want to be credible and responsible as a brand, and one way of being that is through transparency. Transparency is equally about sharing achievements as well as challenges and being honest about your improving areas. With that said, we’ll be sharing our journey towards a more fair fashion industry, with all that it entails.    In our annual CSR report, you'll get insight into how we work, why we work the way we do, and what our current, as well as future, challenges are – all from a sustainability viewpoint.    Read our full Sustainability Report 2023 here. https://lnkd.in/dQZuz34C

What an inspiring webinar with Sophie Bakalar and Stella McCartney yesterday! I wanted to share some highlights and key insights from the conversation. ⤵️ It was truly exciting to hear Stella McCartney open up about her cruelty-free, non-leather, and sustainable brand 🙌🏻 She’s making huge strides in ensuring that fashion becomes more sustainable for future generations. What sets her apart is her unwavering commitment to animals and the planet, making her the only high-end designer to fully embrace these values 👏 In fact, her latest collection was an incredible 96% sustainable - a true testament to her dedication 🍀 During the talk, Stella spoke candidly about the challenges and resistance she’s faced throughout her career. Even at the G7 summit, she highlighted how sustainable fashion needs more support and tax relief-a point that’s often overlooked but so necessary for real change. Stella’s stance on leather is powerful 💼 She refuses to use it because of its ties to animal cruelty, and her brand doesn’t support fur either. What’s even more amazing is her innovation with natural materials—she’s even making knitwear from seaweed! It’s revolutionary and shows just how far sustainable fashion can go 🐾 Knowledge is power, and we need to share these ideas to create lasting impact for future generations. By supporting sustainable fashion, being more conscious of what we buy, and staying curious about the materials we use, we can make a real difference 🌻 Lastly, Stella touched on the important topic of greenwashing, emphasizing how critical it is to stay informed and make genuine, eco-friendly choices. And here’s something exciting—soon, you’ll be able to find used Stella McCartney🙏 pieces right here on Everused!⭐️ #sustainability #fashion #stellamcCartney #crueltyfree #secondhand #everused #fashionbrand #awereness

📣 As part of my #MBA thesis research, I'm exploring "Post-Consumption Behaviour and Practices in the Fashion Industry Toward Environmental Sustainability." 👗🧥 This study examines not just what happens to our unwanted clothing items after they've served their purpose but also how we can responsibly recycle and manage textile waste. ♻️ However, I've realised that recycling alone isn't enough to address the fashion industry's environmental impact. We need to focus on producing and consuming less to make a significant difference. 🍀 It's crucial for us to become more responsible and conscious consumers, making thoughtful choices about the clothes we buy and how often we buy them. Likewise, those in the manufacturing business must prioritise sustainable practices and reduce production where possible. Being mindful of these choices helps reduce the overall environmental footprint and encourages a more sustainable industry. 🦚 By adopting these practices, we can all contribute to creating a more sustainable future. Let's take these steps to be part of the solution, no matter how small. #mbathesis #iambrunel #fashionindustry #textilewastemanagement #environmentalimpact #sustainability #slowfashion #responsible #postconsumption

Let's Make Sustainability Fashionable! Did you know that the fashion industry produces 11% of global greenhouse gas emissions? It’s a scary to think about. But there's hope! California's new law, SB 707, is changing the game. What is SB 707? It's a law that makes fashion brands responsible for the waste their products create. Here's how: 3 Key Changes: *Brands must collect and recycle old clothes. *Producers are accountable for their products' entire lifecycle. *We'll reduce textile waste in landfills by 50%! Why Does it Matter? SB 707 inspires: *Innovative sustainable fashion designs. *Responsible business practices. *A healthier planet for future generations.

In a world where the fashion industry accounts for an estimated 8-10% of global carbon emissions and produces 92 million tonnes of waste annually, it’s time to rethink how we consume and produce clothing. Circular fashion offers a solution, promoting garments that are designed to last, be repaired, and eventually recycled—reducing waste, pollution, and reliance on virgin resources. The shift from the traditional linear economy to a circular model can significantly reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry. This is not only about changing the materials we use but creating a mindset that prioritises sustainability and responsibility at every step—from production to post-consumption. Discover how innovative solutions like bio-materials, closed-loop production and legislation can shape the future of fashion and make sustainable choices accessible for all.
