Sustainability initiative Fashion for Good (FFG) has initiated a new project which, with the support of a consortium of brands, manufacturers and industry organisations, will vie to scale promising chemical recycling solutions in cellulosic textile production. The Full Circle Textiles Project: Scaling Innovations in Cellulosic Recycling project brings together Kering, PVH Corp., Target, Birla Cellulose, the Laudes Foundation and Canopy, and creates an incubated environment in which the technologies of Infinited Fiber Company, Re:newcell, Tyton Biosciences, Evrnu and Phoenxt will be trialled in the manufacture of garments, with scope to scale such solutions.

To accelerate sustainable transformation of the apparel and accessory industry, several leading subject matter experts have united as the Fashion Conveners. Spurred by the vulnerabilities the global pandemic brought forward, the group recognises the urgency to hasten transformational changes needed to reduce environmental and social impacts across fashion.

Anne-Ro Klevant Groen is Vogue’s nieuwe editor at large op gebied van duurzaamheid. Ze werkt bij Fashion for Good, een internationaal innovatieplatform dat circulaire mode nastreeft, helpt onder meer Business of Fashion en Vogue Business aan de correcte ‘groene cijfers’ en interviewde onlangs Iris van Herpen op Vogue’s IG Live. Voor lezers wil ze haar duurzame kennis vooral zo behapbaar mogelijk maken.

Sustainable fashion doesn’t have to cost a fortune, though, if there is enough demand out there. “There’s a perception that sustainable fashion is expensive – this isn’t necessarily the case,” says Brittany Burns, director of strategy and corporate development at non-profit Fashion For Good. “As [new] innovations become more mainstream, [this] drives the prices down. There’s a shift that has to happen.”

In order to look for new solutions and reduce the environmental impact of the wastewater treatment, Fashion for Good, a global initiative that is here to make all fashion good, in partnership with Arvind Limited, BESTSELLER, C&A and PVH Corp., provided business support, development funding and expertise to a pilot project, that involves the adoption of a new and improved wastewater treatment system to assess the feasibility of the solution. The game-changing wastewater treatment system developed by Scaling Programme start-up SeaChange Technologies was evaluated at the Treatment Plant of Arvind Limited near Gujarat, India. The SeaChange system was implemented over a period of three months to test the feasibility of wide-scale implementation of the system.

A pilot project to access the feasibility of a new wastewater treatment system at scale is said to have provided encouraging results for future implementation of the technology in the apparel supply chain. Conducted by global sustainable fashion innovation platform Fashion for Good- with support from Arvind Ltd, Bestseller, C&A and PVH Corp- the pilot if part of a wider bid to seek cost-effective solutions for sustainable wastewater treatment. It assessed a new system developed by start-up SeaChange Technologies, which is a participant in Fashion for Good’s Scaling Programme.

Fashion for Good’s South Asia Innovation Programme has welcomed 9 start-up innovators into second batch of its Regional Programme. Focusing on innovations in raw materials, wet processing, packaging, end-of-use & digital acceleration, the new selection of innovators bring solutions into the Programme crucial to manufacturing and supply chains in South Asia. The second batch joins Fashion for Good’s global selection of start-ups driving the industry’s transformation towards a more sustainable, circular system.

Goed wapenfeit: Fashion for Good is het eerste interactieve modemuseum ter wereld. In de Fashion for Good Experience, zoals de ervaring in het museum wordt genoemd, hoor, zie en voel je de verhalen achter kleding. Aan de hand van een T-shirt, reis je mee in het productieproces, krijg je te zien langs hoeveel handen het product gaat (gemiddeld zo’n 100!) en wat de ware kosten van het maken van een T-shirt nu eigenlijk zijn. Met behulp van een speciale armband kan je tijdens je tocht door het museum allerlei tips en tricks verzamelen die je verder helpen op je persoonlijke good fashion reis. Thuis kan je ze nog een keer rustig nalezen en om de zoveel tijd krijg je een check-in om te kijken hoe ver je bent.

We have some good news for anyone interested in the sustainable future of fashion. From this weekend Fashion for Good, the international innovation and communication ecosystem leading the global transformation of the industry, is launching digital guided tours of its interactive museum. Led by expert FFG hosts, online visitors will have the chance to learn about the story behind their clothes, the innovations helping to clean up the industry and the different options available for making more sustainable choices.

The launch of ‘A Cut Above’ took place as an online event this week featuring the owners of the curated brands, whose products will be available in the Netherlands for the first time in the Fashion for Good – Good Shop. Using a PechaKucha style presentation, the brands introduced themselves, speaking on how they are taking fashion to the next level; from sourcing – using sustainable materials and zero-waste patterns; to assembly – with 3D weaving techniques; and finally to use – creating infinite styles through modular garments or designing virtual fashion that only exists in the digital space.

De Fashion for Good experience, het Amsterdamse museum gespecialiseerd in duurzame mode, heropent vandaag voor het publiek met een nieuw thema. FashionUnited was aanwezig bij de perspresentatie waar het nieuwe thema voor de programmering, A Cut Above, gepresenteerd werd en de zes ontwerpers die de komende zes maanden centraal staan. Daarnaast lanceert Fashion for Good deze week digitale museumtours en worden er vijf nieuwe museumstukken toegevoegd aan de collectie van het museum.

Fashion For Good is a unique experience that addresses  fashion’s problems and the solutions for designers and consumers to participate in. Brands can collaborate with Fashion For Good to learn innovation solutions to the take-make-waste model and museum guests can pledge to take part in simple solutions to be more sustainable- one step at a a time. The end result is a two-way solution to some of fashion’s biggest problems. For those who can’t explore these pieces in person Fashion For Good is offering virtual tours of these innovative designers and other interactive activities that allow brands and consumers to become a part of the solution.

Rabobank invests in the Good Fashion Fund, which provides loans for sustainable technologies to clothing manufacturers in India, Vietnam and Bangladesh. The objective? Systematic change. The loan from Rabobank (which equates to a value of 6.2 million USD) is a welcome addition to the fund. “We’re delighted,” adds fund director Bob Assenberg. “Rabobank is a leading, innovative commercial bank that focuses on sustainable financing, making it an ideal addition to the two other investors who have a relationship with the fashion industry.

In a recently conducted webinar conducted by Sujata Assomull, Founding Editor In Chief of Harper’s Bazaar, India, stake holders in the industry came together to map out the road ahead. On the panel was Dipali Goenka (CEO & Jt. MD, Welspun India Ltd), Punit Lalbhai (Executive Director, Arvind Limited) and Katrin Ley, Managing Director, Fashion For Good, who discussed the current scenario as an opportunity to inspire the industry to walk towards better productivity in fashion.

Sustainable banking company Rabobank has agreed to invest in the Good Fashion Fund which aims to provide capital for sustainable solutions in fashion industry supply chains. The fund invests in the adoption of high impact and disruptive technologies and circular innovations in the textile and apparel production industry, particularly in India, Bangladesh and Vietnam.

Fashion for Good, the global platform for innovation, has received a funding from Rabobank. With a target size of $60 million, company’s current fund capital has reached around $19 million. This fund provides long term funding to apparel and textile manufacturers in India, Bangladesh and Vietnam and other Asian countries to implement impact technologies.

Een concept naar ons hart? Fashion for Good. Een toptitel voor een puik concept: Fashion for Good een wereldwijd initiatief om alle mode, simpelweg, goed te maken. Juist, je goeie (zondagse) goed, goed.

The Covid-19 pandemic has put financial pressure on businesses, threatening their sustainability agendas. But aligning profit and purpose, and fulfilling responsibilities to the planet and communities of people beyond shareholders may matter more than ever to their long-term success.

Vanaf 1 juni mogen we eindelijk weer naar het museum. Vogue verzamelde daarom een aantal van onze favorieten, en tipt direct wat voor moois er allemaal te zien is.

Video-podcast ‘Act to make an impact’ is a series highlighting positive changes being made to the fashion industry. Titled “Is circular fashion the ultimate answer to the current failing fashion system?”, this edition is the 4th in the series. This podcast was recorded at Fashion for Good earlier this year.

Anne-Ro Klevant Groen (Fashion for Good) interviewed fashion designer Iris van Herpen especially for Vogue ‘s new initiative.

The findings are a result of a survey conducted by Dutch sustainability initiative Fashion for Good which was shared with 105 innovators in its programmes to gauge the impact of the crisis on sustainable fashion startups and what support they need moving forward.

Any big discussion about sustainable fashion must include the impact being made by Fashion for Good. Headquartered in Amsterdam, it runs accelerator programmes for early stage companies and scaleups reshaping the industry and – since 2018 – it has been home to an amazing interactive museum where visitors can experience the future of fashion. FFG is also at the heart of a growing communication ecosystem dedicated to inspiring actions that can fast-track the transition. And next week it is hosting an online event: Unpacking the Shifting Role of Sustainability in Fashion

7 experts share their thoughts on what steps they would like to see the fashion industry take now and post-coronavirus.

Though the COVID-19 pandemic may bring a period that stalls innovation as businesses and the supply chain strive to restore themselves, Fashion for Good managing director Katrin Ley says innovation is essential to “reinvigorate business” and “emerge stronger” from this critical period.

Following an improv virtual selection day, held in light of travel restrictions, global sustainability initiative Fashion for Good (FFG) has selected its seventh batch of innovators to embark on its now ritual Accelerator programme, although the landscape for industry collaboration looks far more challenging.

London-based commercial recycling company First Mile has partnered with sustainable fashion innovation platform Fashion for Good to tackle plastic polybag waste in the fashion industry with a new London-based pilot scheme.

Ashley Holding, innovation manager at Fashion for Good and Adam Gendell, associate director of GreenBlue’s flagship project, the Sustainable Packaging Coalition, discuss findings from their joint whitepaper.

Due to current circumstances surrounding Covid-19 pandemic, Fashion for Good held its first virtual Selection Day, hosting international audience of corporate partners and innovators through an online webinar.

Thirteen international startups reshaping the fashion industry have been selected for the internationally-renowned Fashion for Good accelerator. For the first time, due to the deadly COVID-19 pandemic, the seventh batch were picked via a virtual selection day.

Meanwhile, Fashion for Good is on a mission to produce a closed-loop solution for the ubiquitous polybags inherent in fashion retail and e-commerce. Through its Circular Polybag Pilot, launched in December, the collective aims to minimize the use and impacts of the roughly 180 billion virgin polybags produced to store, transport and protect garments, footwear and accessories each year.

By connecting investors with large-scale manufacturers, Fashion for Good is working on making the industry greener.

Fashion for Good kicked off its South Asia innovation program last week, selecting nine innovators “at the cutting-edge” of fashion’s circular transformation.

Katrin Ley from Fashion for Good and Catharina Martinez-Pardo from the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), the authors of a new report on what it will cost to meet the industry’s sustainability goals, join Mike Schragger from the Sustainable Fashion Academy.

Innovations emerging in the fashion industry in response to sustainability pressures present unprecedented investment opportunities, which Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and Fashion for Good estimate at $20 billion to $30 billion annually, according to their new report. In conversation with Richa Bansal, Fashion for Good’s Finance Director Rogier Van Mazijk and BCG Principal Catharina Martinez Pardo throw light on the findings.

Global sustainability initiative Fashion For Good (FFG) has partnered with UK recycler First Mile to streamline plastic polybag recycling efforts in London, as it expands the outlook of its Plastics Packaging Project.

It’s going to cost $20 billion to $30 billion a year to live out the fashion industry’s sustainability promises. That’s the amount needed to be deployed per year toward the development and scaling of disruptive innovations and business models in the fashion industry in order to see a significant “step change” by 2030, according to a report from Boston Consulting Group and Fashion for Good.

In 2020, sustainability is at the top of the fashion industry’s agenda. The industry’s environmental and social impacts are well documented. Under growing consumer and regulatory pressures, industry leaders are recognising the urgent need to move towards responsible practices. The question now is how the industry will transform to achieve a sustainable operating model.

In gesprek met mede-oprichter van Circular Fashion: Ina Budde
Circular.fashion mag dan wel voorop lopen op de weg naar circulariteit, maar tegen wie kijkt Budde op. Wie of wat inspireert haar tijdens haar werk? Fashion for Good komt ter sprake, vooral omdat het grote en impactvolle bedrijven en innovatoren samenbrengt op een plek waar het niet draait om concurrentie. “We kijken op naar al deze initiatieven Samen kan immers de beste en grootste impact gemaakt worden en kan de ontwikkeling versneld worden.

Je kunt ook zelf de designstudio induiken en je duurzaamheid statement maken.

Hoe kun je – wedding wise – liever zijn voor het milieu? We vroegen het aan ontwerper Tess van Zalinge. Momenteel schittert haar tentoonstelling van upcyclede vintage bruidsjurken in Fashion for Good, die ze maakte met weddingplanner Lotte Grossman (samen staan ze ook wel bekend als “tesswithlotte”).

Ha viaggiato in tutto il mondo, visitando anche luoghi pericolosi – fabbriche come il Rana Plaza in Bangladesh, per esempio, dove morirono più di mille persone – Ha fatto domande scomode e investigato temi scottanti, andando a fondo in questioni molto delicate. Ed è rimasta sconvolta di fronte al quello che ha scoperto. Lei è Dana Thomas, scrittrice di best seller del New York Times. Il suo ultimo libro? “Fashionopolis: il prezzo della moda veloce e il futuro dei vestiti” e l’ha presentato in questi giorni al Fashion for Good di Amsterdam, il primo museo della moda sostenibile al mondo.

De Fashion for Good Experience is een interactief modemuseum dat gebruikt maakt van de nieuwste technologieën. Het museum vertelt de verhalen achter de kleding die je draagt en laat je zien hoe je zelf actie kunt ondernemen en een positieve invloed kunt hebben op de mode-industrie.

I’m just back from two weeks in Europe, where the conversation about circularity is going on in earnest. Not surprisingly, the conversation has hot spots, such as the Netherlands, where the national government has stated a goal of achieving a circular economy by 2050 (and a 50 percent reduction in the use of materials, fossil fuels and metals by 2030).

To improve the carbon footprint of the fashion industry, the group wants a greater presence in dominant countries for fashion manufacturing. Disruptors Welcome: The sustainability-minded Fashion for Good is expanding to South Asia with the launch of a regional innovation program.

With Arvind, a global leader in apparel manufacturing and trailblazer in advanced materials, the Fashion for Good Innovation Platform gains a well-experienced partner “committed to testing and implementing sustainable innovations” according to a press release published today.

We live in an age of unprecedented demand on our global resources. The fashion industry is one of the world’s largest polluter, just behind oil. Fashion for Good is a platform for sustainable fashion innovation. Its mission is to bring together the entire ecosystem to make fashion a force for good. Liz Gyekye, Deputy Editor at Bio Market Insights, catches up with Georgia Parker, innovation manager at Fashion for Good.

Do you get excited when hearing about breakthrough sustainability apparel innovations – such as fibers made from fruit waste or blockchain technology being used to track and trace the origin and content of your clothing? Do you sometimes wonder if these breakthroughs are too good to be true? Greg Stillman and Rogier van Mazijk work with visionary entrepreneurs and impact investors every day.

A strategic partnership has been established between industry innovation hub Fashion for Good and Switching Gear, a project set up by Circle Economy. The initiative has been started with the aim ​of accelerating re-commerce and rental business models within the apparel sector, and will collaborate with six brands to design and launch pilots of new business models by 2021.

To transform the fashion industry, global fashion retailer C&A together with its corporate foundation, the C&A Foundation, launched the Fashion for Good Centre in Amsterdam two years ago, with the aim of transforming the fashion industry, driving its transition to a circular economy and bringing industry players together to “reimagine how fashion is designed, made, used and reused”.

Green fashion has never been so hot a topic and the capital of the Netherlands is fast-proving why it should be every eco-fashionista’s next trip. But what is it that Amsterdam is doing that makes it stand out sustainably from the rest of the fashion capitals? Amira Arasteh looks at some key Dutch designers paving the way for slow fashion and why they think every step adds value to the journey.

A growing number of young brands are putting sustainability at the center of their business models. As part of WWD’s special Earth Day coverage, here are 12 emerging green designers.

Sustainability is a prevailing topic with fashion executives, but consumers need pragmatic advice — not statistics — to take action. In the ongoing battle to try to make consumers more sustainable, statistics are often the weapon of choice. But as for what will actually make shoppers change their everyday behavior and adopt more planet-saving habits, that on-the-ground strategy encompasses more varying directives.

The ethical pioneer and her head of innovation, Claire Bergkamp, discuss how to turn a commitment to the planet into a stylish, profitable proposition in Vogue’s Get Your Greens series.

For nearly 20 years Adidas AG has pursued an environmental and technological holy grail: a sneaker that can be recycled and reused in new shoes without any waste. It’s a feat of design and engineering that has proved elusive.

“For us at Supplycompass, it’s about bringing supply chains into the 21st century via vetted online marketplaces and the digitisation of design development, sourcing and production management methods. Once every player in a supply chain is working from the same platform, the interconnectivity and purchasing that happens throughout the system will allow brands much greater traceability and certainty on compliance and impact”

Awareness and information around sustainable practice and jobs are few and far between; reliable resources are limited; and learning to divorce personal ethics with professional practice can be a challenge. Here, Bergkamp shares her insight on how best to start a career in fashion’s growing sustainability sector.

In episode four of Impact Unpacked, Chloe and Helen dive into fashion, style, clothing – they chat about how fast or cheaply made fashion negatively impacts the environment, and explore the many creative initiatives being taken to provide style to consumers while being good for people, and the planet.

Amsterdam is not only home to Denham the Jeanmaker, Kings of Indigo and Kingpins, which begins Wednesday at Westergasfabriek. The Dutch city is also a trailblazer in sustainability, leading by example with initiatives to increase the number of zero-emission vehicles on its roads, to establish a circular economy through new business models and to take actions that will make it “climate proof” by 2020.

Amsterdam is establishing itself as the global capital of the burgeoning sustainable fashion industry. I’ll be checking out how the city is inspiring this welcome trend over the next couple of days, as I meet the innovators changing an industry that is one of the worst polluters.

The fashion industry is one of the largest polluters in the world. In an effort to look for more sustainable ways of working, the Amsterdam-based non-profit platform Fashion for Good aims to connect and inform all major players in the field, including consumers, through its impressive office, event space and museum. Fashion for Good’s Communications Manager, Anne-Ro Klevant Groen, explains why the pace must be stepped up to stamp out fast fashion.

At Good On You, we firmly believe in transparency. We think it is the first step towards accountability and making the fashion industry more ethical and sustainable. But how did we come to this current state where we know nothing (looking at you, Jon Snow) or at least very little about how our clothes are made?

Los amantes de la moda, la innovación y la sustentabilidad no pueden dejar visitar el museo Fashion for Good Experience en Ámsterdam. En octubre de 2018, en la capital holandesa se inauguró el primer museo dedicado a la innovación de la moda sustentable.

Geef mij maar Amsterdaaaam! Onze hoofdstad… of je er nu woont, er regelmatig komt of er nog nooit bent geweest: het mooie Mokum zit barstensvol leuke en inspirerende plekken. Misschien zelfs zóveel dat je door de bomen het bos niet meer ziet.  Luxeprobleem, anyone? Een goede reden om onze favoriete to-do’s eens voor je op een rijtje te zetten.

Today Fashion For Good announced their fifth batch of innovators who will be joining their Plug and Play Accelerator. The selected ten innovators will be partaking in a twelve-week programme that includes mentorship and business development opportunities with Fashion For Good’s corporate partners.

A handful of new initiatives, products and innovations continue the attack on fashion’s wasteful and environmentally and socially destructive practices from a variety of angles.

A new wave of companies looking to make fashion more sustainable has joined Fashion for Good’s Plug and Play Accelerator program, which provides them with a twelve-week curriculum including mentorship and business development opportunities from Fashion for Good’s corporate partners C&A, Adidas, Bestseller, Galeries Lafayette, Kering, Otto Group, PVH Corp, Stella McCartney, Target and Zalando.

AMSTERDAM – A fifth batch of innovators have joined the Fashion for Good-Plug and Play Accelerator, as ten entrepreneurs were selected from hundreds of applicants.

They will undertake a twelve-week curriculum which includes mentorship and business development opportunities, with the aim of driving market validation and priming the technologies for implementation at scale.

Fashion for Good is the first of its kind. It’s a museum specifically showcasing sustainable fashion and a hub for educating yourself on the harmful impacts the industry creates. Whether you’re like me and are already well-versed in what the phrase ‘fashion for good’ can possibly mean or whether you’re completely new to it all and have spontaneously found yourself at the museum on a tourist trip, it’s now at the top of my recommendations list.

AMSTERDAM – The developers of a new tracing system say they are confident they will soon be able to fully trace organic cotton from the farm right through to the consumer. Pressure for greater transparency and sustainability in the fashion industry is intensifying, with consumers more aware than ever of the ethical and environmental impact of fashion, while governments are beginning to demand accountability from brands and retailers for their supply chains.

Consumer demand is driving fashion outlets to use more organic cotton, pushing the commodity to a global market of over $15 billion. Despite double-digit growth in production year over year, companies struggle to meet that demand, and the fragmented nature of the supply chain makes it difficult for manufacturers to know if the cotton they’re buying is actually organic—or just a knockoff.

Norwegian outdoor brand Norrøna has been announced as the latest company to join forces with Fashion for Good, as the sustainable fashion initiative continues to gain industry traction by working with an ever-growing pool of apparel sector organisations to support innovation.

AMSTERDAM – Sustainability initiative Fashion for Good (FFG) has announced the theme of its next capsule collection which will hone in on transparency within the industry. The ‘Naked’ collection – only the second of its kind to be held in FFG’s museum which opened in October – will comprise garments manufactured by six new partnering brands which purport to prioritise sustainability and circularity in their supply chains.

The Fashion for Good museum in Amsterdam is educating people about where their clothes come from and what types of sustainable options are out there.

Dutch consumers will get their first taste of Los Angeles transparent label, ReformationJeans, at the Fashion for Good Experience.

Beginning Feb. 1, Reformation will be one of six sustainable brands included in Fashion for Good’s new capsule collection focused on transparent brands, called “Naked.”

The Amsterdam-based interactive museum is the first dedicated to sustainable fashion innovation. The “carefully curated” selection of brands—Reformation, A.BCH, Allbirds, ASKET, la fille d’O and Swedish Stockings—will be featured in the museum’s contemporary retail space.

Paddestoelenleer, gescheurde panty’s, tweedehands spijkerbroeken en versleten sokken. De tentoonstelling van de Redress Design Award laat zien dat je alles mag gebruiken om een originele jurk te ontwerpen, zolang je maar niets verspilt.

An exhibit featuring pieces from the Redress Design Awards 2018 opened at Fashion for Good Experience in Amsterdam. The diverse array of collections were made entirely from waste, ranging from the usual suspects of dead stock textile and surplus materials from manufacturing, to more unusual contributors such as furniture offcuts and sofa fabrics. Finalists created unique pieces with zero-waste, utilising various up-cycling and reconstruction techniques to demonstrate the endless possibilities of sustainable fashion. The exhibition is open until 14th February and is free of entry.

Het in Los Angeles gevestigde modemerk Reformation zet voor het eerst voet aan de grond in Nederland.

We believe that not a single visitor will leave without being affected by what they have witnessed – and will definitely be inspired and moved to make a difference.

As of October 5th a new, truly unique experience has opened in Amsterdam. Designed to inspire, inform and equip, it’s the brainchild of Fashion for Good, the collective committed to seeing the fashion industry shift towards sustainability around the world.

Visitors can take a ‘personalised digital journey with an RFID- bracelet’ and delve into the history of fashion, as well as discover more about how they can play a big part in accelerating it towards a sustainable future.

It is collaborating with incubators and other apparel companies to provide funding and operational expertise for developing innovations that promote sustainable practices.

Following the launch of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s industry report last week, which called for the collective implementation of more sustainable strategies to introduce a circular economy, the Fashion for Good end-of-year event proved a fertile space for industry leaders to discuss disruptive innovation and scalability.

With climate change on everyone’s mind, the sense of urgency to change the fashion industry for the better is building.

Just weeks after the launch of McDonough Innovation’s Fashion for Good innovation and practical action lab in Amsterdam, the 12 startups selected to participate in the Plug and Play — Fashion for Good accelerator have been announced.

Plug and Play hopes that its new accelerator, called Plug and Play-Fashion for Good, will solve some of these issues by connecting textile startups with large retailers. The program, a partnership between Plug and Play, Fashion for Good, a global initiative founded by C&A Foundation, and luxury conglomerate Kering, whose brands include Gucci and Alexander McQueen, launched last week in Amsterdam.

Sustainable textile start-ups focused on everything from mushroom leather to nanotechnology tracers are among the first cohort for Plug and Play and Fashion for Good’s new accelerator programme in partnership with Kering.

AMSTERDAM –  Nanotechnology introduced into cotton gins that can later be scanned and identified to improve the traceability of cotton fibre; the use of microorganisms to replace conventional methods of textile dye production; and new filtration technology using light for cleaning water in textile supply chains are just some of the start-ups awarded a place in the ‘Plug and Play – Fashion for Good’ accelerator to support the scale-up of their textile innovations.

Aiming to fast-track sustainable innovation within the luxury and apparel industries, Fashion For Good, Plug and Play and Kering, a company known for its ensemble of luxury houses in fashion, have come together to give startups the opportunity to be part of an innovation accelerator.

The new group promotes lowering environmental impact of apparel production.

If even Kering, the French luxury group that includes brands such as Gucci, Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, is investing in ethical and green startups, there is no doubt about it: the future of fashion is in sustainability.
