Episode 16: Scaling Circularity in Fashion with Fashion for Good

About this episode

This episode features Katrin Ley from Fashion for Good discussing the transformation of the fashion industry towards sustainability.

The fashion industry is responsible for around 10% of global carbon emissions – more than aviation and shipping combined. But change is on the horizon. In this new episode of "The Future is Circular," we sit down with Katrin Ley, Managing Director at Fashion for Good, to unpack how the organization is uniting brands, innovators, and manufacturers to spark real transformation in the industry. From accelerating next-gen materials and circular footwear to pioneering research on reducing shedding and improving textile performance, Fashion for Good is promoting regeneration and collaboration as the new standard in fashion.
