case of fast fashion, even weekly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this production model often leads to risks such as unsold inventory, overproduction, and the rapid obsolescence of products, resulting in waste that is challenging to dispose of and causing significant harm to the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Circular fashion emerged as a response to these challenges, promoting a different consumption

work?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Circular fashion represents the application of circular economy principles within the fashion sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a circular economy, the focus is on a production and consumption model that encourages sharing, lending, reusing, repairing, refurbishing, and recycling existing materials and products for as long as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The primary objective is to minimize waste generation while simultaneously creating added value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img

entails selecting non-contaminating and recyclable fabrics while also rejuvenating existing fibers sourced from separate collections (including garments, fishing nets, carpets, industrial waste, plastic bottles, and more).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its ultimate objective is to diminish the environmental impact of the textile industry, currently ranked as the second most polluting sector worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To put things into perspective, the fashion industry generates approximately 20 million tons of waste annually on a global scale, contributing to over 10% of greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the term &#8220;circular&#8221; implies, circular fashion strives to create a closed-loop system where everything produced remains part of the cycle, eliminating waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This virtuous cycle stands in contrast to prevailing economic models, such as fast fashion, which promote a linear and unsustainable approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learn

fashion?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Deciding to embrace the principles of circular fashion brings multiple benefits across various aspects. Let&#8217;s explore some of them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Textile waste reduction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The impact of textile waste is staggering. Over 300 million clothing items are discarded annually, with 80% of them composed of polyester, a material that takes up to 2,000 years to decompose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Extending the lifespan of fibers through circulation significantly reduces textile waste, benefiting the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safe materials usage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Circular processes commence with the selection of chemicals and materials that are safe for both human health and the environment. Effective recycling relies on such resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consequently, it is crucial to cleanse the fashion supply chain of hazardous substances. This practice ensures the environment and consumer well-being are safeguarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transformation of waste into value<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the circular economy, materials are regenerated, enabling their prolonged use instead of depletion as seen in fast fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This approach maximizes the value extracted from resources, continuously reintegrating them into the economic cycle rather than disposing of them as waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learn more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/en\/blog\/textile-waste\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How to properly dispose of your clothing company\u2019s textile waste?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Environmental impact reduction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The environmental impact of the textile sector is substantial, and addressing this challenge is of utmost importance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The industry consumes 1,500 billion liters of water annually, generates over 92 million tons of textile waste, contributes to 20% of industrial water pollution through processing and dyeing, and is responsible for 35% of microplastics in oceans stemming from synthetic garment washing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By promoting and widely implementing circular economy principles through public policies, these figures can be significantly reduced, instilling hope for a sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-steps-for-incorporating-circular-fashion-principles-into-your-company\"><\/span><strong>3 steps for incorporating circular fashion principles into your company<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re wondering where to begin on your journey toward circular fashion, we&#8217;ve gathered three essential steps to help you get started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/circular-fashion-steps.jpg\" alt=\"Circular fashion: The image shows a woman working with a sewing machine in a fashion bureau.\" class=\"wp-image-145033\" srcset=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/circular-fashion-steps.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/circular-fashion-steps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/audaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/circular-fashion-steps-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Foster transparency with suppliers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Implementing a virtuous circular fashion process extends beyond individual company choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To establish a production and consumption model that emphasizes sharing, lending, reusing, repairing, reconditioning, and recycling existing materials and products for as long as possible, it&#8217;s important to engage in a broader approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Building alliances and collaborative strategies with your suppliers is vital. Communicate your intentions and requirements, seeking partners who share your values and are committed to addressing the entire supply chain, beyond production and sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working together with your suppliers, develop indicators, traceability systems, and comprehensive monitoring to enable a circular process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make intelligent and sustainable raw material choices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Selecting raw materials intelligently is a critical step towards achieving sustainability and circular fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, ensure that the production chain does not contaminate raw materials with pollutants, reducing their impact during production, washing, and disposal. Secondly, prioritize recyclable fibers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While natural fibers offer the advantage of biodegradability, it is important for a fiber to be 100% composed of the same material to be truly recyclable in a circular fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hence, a garment made from 100% polyester holds more value in a circular context than one with a composition of 80% cotton and 20% polyester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learn more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/audaces.com\/en\/blog\/fashion-revolution\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Find out what Fashion Revolution is and the purpose of the movement<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prioritize innovative garment design<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Circular fashion requires specific design techniques that integrate circular economy principles from the outset of garment creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the design and modeling phase, consider the durability of garments, waste generation, and the potential for recovery and recycling based on material choices, garment construction, and dyeing and finishing processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These operations are intricate and necessitate the development of new design techniques, materials knowledge, and a fresh mindset for fashion designers.
