Praise for the previous edition: "[A] fascinating book." John
Thackara, Doors of Perception "Provides the foundations for a
radical new perspective." Ethical Pulse "At last a book that
dispels the idea that fashion is only interested in trend-driven
fluff: not only does it have a brain, but it could be a sustainable
one." Lucy Siegle, Crafts Magazine Fully revised and updated, the
second edition of Sustainable Fashion and Textiles: Design Journeys
continues to define the field of design in fashion and textiles.
Arranged in two sections, the first four chapters represent key
stages of the lifecycle: material cultivation/extraction,
production, use and disposal. The remaining four chapters explore
design approaches for altering the scale and nature of consumption,
including service design, localism, speed and user involvement.
While each chapter is complete in and of itself, their real value
comes from what they represent together: innovative ways of
thinking about textiles and garments based on sustainability values
and an interconnected approach to design. Including a new preface,
updated content and a new conclusion reflecting and critiquing
developments in the field, as well as discussing future
developments, the second edition promises to provide further
impetus for future change, sealing Sustainable Fashion and
Textiles: Design Journeys as the must-buy book for fashion and
textiles professionals and students interested in sustainability.
