We aim to transform the global fashion industry by sparking the power of collective action. The initiative brings together major brands, start-ups, suppliers and retailers to accelerate toward a world of only good fashion.
And we’ve already reached some milestones since our Call for Collaboration at the end of March: we announced the first cohort of start-ups on our early-stage accelerator programme, we introduced a an open-sourced Good Fashion Guide based on the lessons we learned while creating the world’s first Cradle to Cradle Certified™ GOLD garment alongside C&A and opened our doors to the public at the launchpad exhibition of the Fashion for Good Experience centre in Amsterdam.
A new pilot with Fashion for Good partner BESTSELLER in collaboration with innovator Biophilica aims to test and validate the leather alternative Treekind® as a replacement for conventional footwear materials.
Today, Fashion for Good launches the Home-Compostable Polybag Project, a pilot to test alternatives to conventional single-use polybags.
Since the investment has been made by the Good Fashion Fund, Pratibha Syntex Limited has installed new spinning equipment, solar panels, a continuous tumble dryer, and made enhancements to effluent treatment, with impact results surpassing 50% savings in all key areas.
