Can fashion solve overproduction?

Today we discuss the environmental and social effects of overproduction in the fashion industry, and try to look ahead with optimism. We discuss:

• Why overproduction occurs in the first place, and how it affects the Sell Through Rate at retailers.
• Why is it so hard to get the data? We unwrap the extensive 2022 Fashion Transparency Index report.
• The new market for discarded textiles, with oil refinery-type services in India and beyond.
• The need for recycling innovations, and our recent visit to Renewcell’s new factory.
• And our favourite initiatives from digital and physical fashion that could turn the negative trend around.
