Kurzbeschreibung:
Through a collection of specially commissioned essays, Sustainable Fashion: Why Now? examines the issues of sustainability that designers, product developers, and consumers confront as they go about their business of creating, wearing, and recycling clothing and fashion. In a broader sense, the book considers what "sustainability" means alongside "fashion"-two seemingly contradictory concepts as fashion is all about change and sustainability, is all about preservation. Through a lively range of perspectives, the authors engage their readers in a dialogue on sustainable fashion that generates new ideas on how to produce fashion with a sense of ethics, organic or renewable resources, and socially responsible manufacturing techniques.

Erscheinungsjahr: 2008

Umfang: Taschenbuch, 424 Seiten

Sprache: Englisch

Inhalt: The format of the book is an anthology, divided into three sections, each focused on an in-depth exploration of sustainable opportunity: "Connecting with Consumers on Issues Relating to Sustainable Practices," "Production and Economic Processes in the Global Economy," and "The Environment, the Planet, and the Materials Used in Fashion Making." This structure provides an interconnected and circular way to explore the creation and practice of sustainable fashion that is not possible through old, linear models of understanding the fashion industry.
Features illustrated Best Practices that demonstrate, through interviews and examples, sustainable business practices in real-life scenarios, examples of syllabi, assignments, in-class activities, discussion questions, and worksheets.

Schlagwörter: Waste Management, Textile Waste, Abfall, Textilien, Materialien, Design, Designstrategien, Designer/innen, Modedesigner/innen, Ökobilanz, Life Cycle, umweltfreundlich, ökologisch

Kurzbeschreibung:
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.

Kurzbeschreibung:
Green Fashion, ökologische Bekleidung und Bio-Baumwolle sind Begriffe, die verstärkt in den öffentlichen Medien genannt werden. Doch was macht ökologische Bekleidung wirklich aus, wo stecken die Tücken in der Bekleidungsproduktion und wie kann der Verbraucher Einfluss nehmen? Viele Prozesse in der textilen Kette, wie das Färben oder Bedrucken von Textilien oder die Wäschepflege, werden in ihrer ökologischen Brisanz unterschätzt. Ökolabels kennzeichnen ökologische, hautfreundliche und fair produzierte Textilien, doch die Anzahl an Textilkennzeichnungen ist groß und ihre Bedeutung nicht immer schlüssig. Anstatt einzelne Prozesse auseinander zu reißen, zeigt dieses Buch übergreifend alle ökologisch relevanten Aspekte im Lebenszyklus von Bekleidung auf, informiert über technische Innovationen und die detaillierte Bedeutung von Ökosiegeln und vergleicht verschiedene Fasern auf ihre Ökobilanz. Die textile Kette zu verstehen erleichtert einen Modekonsum im Einklang mit der Umwelt.
