  • Is oil a staple in fashion manufacturers' inventories?
  • Sure, everyone knows that oil powers planes, trucks and cars, but did you know that it’s also a staple in the inventories of fashion manufacturers? Yep, oil is a key ingredient in a myriad of products that most people wouldn’t dream of associating with petroleum.
  • Why is the fashion industry dependent on fossil fuels?
  • Production of cheap synthetic fibres not only enables low-quality, throwaway fashion ? it also makes the fashion industry highly dependent on continued fossil-fuel extraction. The production of synthetic fibres for the textile industry currently accounts for 1.35% of global oil consumption. This exceeds the annual oil consumption of Spain.
  • What percentage of textiles will be produced from fossil fuels?
  • It is now estimated that synthetic fibres will grow from 69% to 73% of total fibre production globally by 2030, with polyester accounting for 85% of this. In other words, if the fashion industry continues with business as usual, in less than 10 years, almost three-quarters of our textiles will be produced from fossil fuels.
  • Are fashion designers embracing upcycling as a form of expression?
  • Fashion designers and artists are embracing upcycling as a form of expression, creating one-of-a-kind pieces that tell a story. Sustainable brands like Reformation and Eileen Fisher have launched upcycling initiatives, turning old fabrics into new collections.
