Circular fashion is an application of circular economy to the fashion industry, where the life cycles of fashion products are extended. The aim is to create a closed-loop system where clothing items are designed, produced, used, and then recycled or repurposed in a way that minimizes waste and reduces the environmental impact of the fashion industry. It involves moving away from the traditional linear model of take-make-use-and-dispose towards a circular model of reduce-reuse-recycle-and-regenerate. This model not only helps in reducing environmental impact but also promotes economic growth through innovative business models and sustainable practices.
