Circularity and Innovation
Innovation and Circularity are key to reducing the 90 million tonnes of textile waste from fashion every year. The integration of fashion technology allows us to explore more sustainable practices in reducing the environmental impact of the fashion industry. By creating circular systems, fashion technology can help us close the loop and manage material flow, allowing us to reuse and repurpose materials and styles in a more responsible way. This opens up possibilities for more sustainable fashion and gives us the ability to create captivating styles that are good for the planet and our wardrobe.Learn how AI, Blockchain, Web3 and Immersive Storytelling are Revolutionizing the World of Fashion Technology and Circularity
