Sustainability in Fashion

With Stockholm cancelling their fashion week to promote ethical fashion and to break away from the fast-fashion culture that is blamed for huge carbon dioxide emissions; there is now an even bigger focus on 'sustainable fashion'. Here is what Copenhagen Fashion Week has to say about it.

“Copenhagen Fashion Week is dedicated to supporting and accelerating the sustainable development of the fashion industry. By promoting innovative business models, designs and solutions during our biannual fashion week, and by producing a more sustainable event, our goal is to help reduce the negative environmental and social impact of the industry, as well as to encourage more responsible production and consumption of fashion”
