The Circular Economy Show | Redesigning the fashion industry: By creatives for creatives

The Circular Economy Show is a fortnightly discussion and debate around how we can move from a linear take-make-waste economy towards a circular economy.

In each episode, our hosts are joined by inspiring businesses, policymakers, academics, and designers to discuss how circular economy solutions are being scaled, at speed, to create long-term economic growth and tackle global challenges including climate change and pollution.

Each year millions of tonnes of clothes are produced, worn, and thrown away. Every second, the equivalent of a rubbish truck load of clothes is burnt or buried in landfill. By considering the whole system surrounding their designs, creatives have the power to transform the fashion industry into one where clothing and accessories do not become harmful waste. In this episode we will be exploring what circular design for fashion means, and speak to creatives who are already doing it.

Circular Design Programme Manager, Elodie Rousselot will also join us to explore the Foundation’s new book, “Circular Design for fashion” which can be used as a guide to empower creatives who would like to start the journey towards circular design and redefine the future of fashion
