INTRODUCTION
3. THE NEED FOR SUSTAINABLE
FASHION
Once synonymous with glitz and luxury, the fashion industry has
long been criticized for its detrimental effects on the environment
and society. The traditional fashion model has a huge carbon
footprint and has contributed to social injustice through excessive
water use, chemical pollution, and exploitative labor practices.
The need for change and the shift towards sustainable options are
growing as consumers become more informed.
4. CHALLENGES AND FUTURE
OUTLOOK
Although the sustainable fashion movement has come a long way, it
still has a long way to go before it has a big influence. One of the
biggest barriers is the idea that eco-friendly clothing is pricey and
out of reach. The greater price of clothing made ethically frequently
reflects fair wages and eco-friendly techniques, making them
unaffordable for some customers.
In order to get past this obstacle, there needs to be more education
and understanding about the true costs of fast fashion, including the
harm it causes to the environment and the exploitation of workers.
5. CONCLUSION
With its focus on ethical companies
and environmentally friendly
processes, sustainable fashion offers
an important step in reducing the
environmental and social problems
that the conventional fashion
business causes. The fashion industry
may change to a more sustainable
and responsible model that respects
both people and the environment
