Innovations in Circular Fashion: Reusing, Repairing and Recovering for a Sustainable Future

The shift to circular fashion is redefining the industry, moving away from a linear take-make-waste model toward systems that prioritise longevity and resourcefulness. This webinar explores how brands, designers, and advocates are embracing reuse, repair, and recovery to create a more sustainable future for fashion.

From emerging business models to innovative material recovery processes, our speakers will share insights into the practical changes happening across the industry. Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on the challenges and opportunities of circularity, and how we can collectively reshape the way fashion is produced, consumed, and regenerated.
