With innovative examples of best practice from international designers and brands, the chapters follow each key stage in the life cycle of a fashion garment and explores approaches such as low-impact textiles techniques, mono-materiality, zero waste techniques, upcycling, repair and maintenance techniques and closed-loop design systems.
New to this edition: More in-depth coverage of design thinking, materials manufacture, practical techniques for creating ‘faster’ recyclable fashion and new ways forward for fashion, such as including the circular economy and the Sustainable Development Goals.
