How sustainability is revolving around the fashion industry

Sustainability in fashion  involves multiple aspect starting from the  products, processes, activities and finally the people behind this in aiming to achieve a carbon-neutral fashion industry, built on equality, social justice, animal welfare, and ecological integrity. Sustainable fashion concerns more than just addressing fashion textiles or products. It addresses the entire manner in which clothing is produced, who produces it, and how long the life span of a product is before it reaches the landfill. This sustainable movement combats the large carbon footprint that the fashion industry and fast fashion have created by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  Reducing the environmental impact of fashion can combat air pollution, water pollution and overall climate change. 

Also in the last few years we have come across multiple sustainable fabrics like hemp, soy, bamboo, banana and pineapple fibres which are not only naturally sustainable but biodegradable as well.
