Can Digital Technologies Support Sufficiency in Fashion? Evidence from Innovative UK Fashion SMEs
The far-reaching environmental impacts of the fashion industry are well documented. Although impact reduction per garment has improved, these gains are eclipsed by the steadily increasing rates of clothing consumption and production. Meaningful change can be achieved through the de-acceleration of consumption, aligned with concepts of degrowth and sufficiency. While this area is growing, research into conceptual developments and practical applica…
Garment Quality and Sustainability
This paper explores the role played by female perceptions of garment quality in relation to how long clothing is kept and how it is used. It considers perceptions of quality in relation to implications for sustainability in fashion. The research involves two phases of empirical data collection conducted in the UK. The first phase draws on a subset of findings from a 12-month laundry study that surveyed the use and laundering of 32 different garme…
Design Strategies for the Eternal Reoccurrence of the New
In response to increasing resource pressures and environmental degradation in relation to the fashion industry, the body of academic work on extending garment lifetimes is growing steadily. Yet there is a lack of knowledge regarding how design strategies for longevity play out in practice. This research aims to bridge that gap by drawing on both theoretical knowledge and empirical data from three case studies conducted in UK-based small and mediu…
