Fashion Made Fair : Modern – innovative – sustainable

Sustainability plays an ever-growing role in the fashion world, whether in the high-fashion segment or in everyday clothing. More and more fashion brands around the globe are designing cool, elegant and modern fashion with meaning. But which production steps are actually behind it? Whether a garment was produced in a fair, environmentally friendly and resource-saving way can be seen - if at all - at second glance and that is a good thing. The new book ‘Fashion Made Fair’, which will be published on 25 April 2016, looks behind the scenes and presents 33 designers and labels worldwide who show how we dress responsibly today and in the future, without thinking about old-fashioned clothes made of jute or hemp.
Experts such as Bruno Pieters, Lilly Cole and Michael Braungart explain sustainable materials and resource-saving techniques such as upcycling. They also look at the rediscovery of traditional craftsmanship and at business models in which the consumer is directly involved, e.g. leasing or recycling clothing – fair working conditions are a matter of course.
