Sustainable fashion refers to textile and clothing offerings that are made with a focus onenvironmental impact, social responsibility, and ethics in the production process.
The sustainable fashion market in Italy encompasses a wide range of offerings and products, including clothing made from organic or recycled fabrics, products made according to circular economy principles, clothing made by brands that promote transparency and fairness in the supply chain, sustainable accessories such as handbags and footwear made from eco-friendly materials, and products made by companies that adopt low-impact production practices and respect workers' rights.
The sustainable fashion movement originated with the modern environmental movement and Rachel Carson's book "Silent Spring" in 1963. This raised attention to the pollution associated with industrialization, an issue still relevant in the environmental and social impact of fashion. In the1990s, environmental issues entered the fashion and textiles debate, with companies such as Patagonia and ESPRIT beginning to integrate environmental concerns into their operations. They commissioned research on the impacts of the fibers they used, conducting life-cycle assessments and looking for sustainable alternatives, as in the case of cotton. In the following years, the sustainable fashion movement spread to many other brands, each with its own specific agenda and its own history, policies, and dynamics.[Algonatural]
Key players in this industry include brands and designers dedicated to sustainable fashion, associations and organizations that promote sustainability in fashion, certification bodies, and regulatory bodies.
The global sustainable fashion market has been valued at $7,548.2 million in 2022 and is expected to reach $11,120 million in 2027 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.0% from 2022 to 2027(thebusinessresearchcompany)
