This book provides a holistic and accessible approach to sustainable fashion management. It offers an interdisciplinary and practical outlook, combining theory with practical application from a management perspective and underpinned by the Sustainable Development Goals throughout.
The book helps students to gain a better understanding of what sustainable fashion is and how it is implemented across the fashion industry, through business model innovations, innovative designs, new technology and digital approaches, and material innovations. Global case studies are employed throughout each chapter, including fashion companies and events of all sizes, alongside other pedagogical features to aid learning, including key learning points, chapter objectives, and textboxes explaining key terminology.
This is an essential textbook for those investigating sustainable fashion, whether from a design or management perspective, providing the knowledge and tools for a future career. It is designed to serve Fashion Business and Management, Fashion Marketing, Fashion Buying and Merchandising and Fashion Technology courses, at all levels, and will also be valuable reading for those already working within the fashion industry and studying for professional qualifications. Online resources include chapter-by-chapter PowerPoint slides and a test bank.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'We live in times of super complexity, due to a multitude of understandings in an unknowable world. There has never been so much interest in fashion and sustainability; hardly surprising due to fashion's industrial and social activity being directly and indirectly complicity in climate change, biodiversity loss, social inequality and wellbeing concerns. However, we are very far from having learnt how to thrive as humans in a more than human world. This book takes a much-needed, pragmatic and illustrative approach to fashion as a professional practice that connects a range of disciplines. It informs decision-making and idea-generation for a range of learners that can be applied across and beyond fashion's activities.'
Dilys Williams, Professor of Fashion, Design and Sustainability, Director Centre for Sustainable Fashion, a UAL research centre based at London College of Fashion.
