Fashion

Can fashion ever be sustainable?

The way you dispose of clothes at the end of their lifespan is also important. Throwing them away so they end up in landfills or incinerated simply results in more emissions. Perhaps the best approach is to pass them on to friends or take them to charity stores if they are still good enough to be worn. However, individuals should be careful not to use this as a way to free up space just to buy new clothes, which Wilson research suggests is common.

When clothes have been worn or damaged beyond repair, the most environmentally friendly way to dispose of them is to send them for recycling. Clothing recycling is still relatively new for many fabrics but more and more cotton and polyester clothing can now be made into new clothing or other items. Some large manufacturers have started using recycled fabrics, but it is often difficult for consumers to find places to take their old clothes.

Many of the changes needed to make clothing more durable need to be implemented by the manufacturers and large companies that control the fashion industry. But as consumers, the changes we all make in our behavior not only add up, but can also lead to changes in the industry.

Gilfeather says we can all make a difference by being more thoughtful as consumers.
