This year at Copenhagen Fashion Week, the event faced tough but obvious policies to provide sustainability.
In a world where teenage girls order clothes from first fashion websites such as Shein and Fashion Nova, and now the Trump administration is Paris Climate Agreementwe need to spread more information about how dangerous unsustainable fashion is truly.
Companies had to meet strict rules and standards to win spots at fashion shows.
“At least 60% of each collection must be certified, made from priority materials or made from dead stock fabric.” Hypertension.
These new rules have inspired some of the companies involved in the collection. For example, the CEO of 66° North Heelgióskarsson decided to implement vintage fisherman jackets and raincoats in the design of the show, creating the theme of the collection, “Changing the Landscape.”
Óskarsson’s theme was inspired by the effects of climate change Iceland. A struggling country has melted ice and glaciers for years.
The company that participated in the show was also shared. Sustainability, Environment, Social and Governance Strategy In a detailed report, including “How tasks/responsibilities related to sustainability strategies are owned/splitted and split to ensure progress towards goals.”
After President Donald Trump called for businesses to remove their diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies, the fashion show also thought it needed a DEI.
Companies had to provide evidence of diversity, equity, inclusion and attribution (DEIB) policies, including handbooks, strategic documents, and more.
We are pleased that a huge fashion event is finally taking the initiative at this age and age.
