Redesigning the Fashion Industry | The Story of The Jeans Redesign
August 12, 2022

Fashion's "take-make-waste" model is highly polluting; a 2017 Ellen MacArthur Foundation report revealed a truckload of garments goes to landfill or incineration every second. This unsustainable system urgently needs a redesign.

The Foundation champions a circular economy, eliminating waste and pollution. Its Jeans Redesign project exemplifies this, uniting over 100 brands to create jeans designed for durability, reuse, and recycling. This initiative ensures clothes never become waste, offering a blueprint for circular fashion.
