The 4 Life Cycles of a Garment and Their Effects on People & Planet: A Lesson In Conscious Fashion



In Conscious Fashion Design There are four distinct life cycles of a garment to consider:

  1. Textile Production

  2. Garment Manufacturing

  3. Customer care

  4. Landfill

Each has effects on the environment and humanity. So how can we as designers and industry professionals incorporate more informed and conscious decisions at each touch point within the lifecycle of a garment to create Conscious fashion?


View our online workshop, "Bringing Consciousness into Fashion" led by Daniela Caine, Designer & industry pro. She walks us through the lifecycles of a garment, and how to look at the big picture. This is essential to gain an understanding of the process and the effects it has on people and the planet. Looking at the lifecycle in its entirety, she will share practical ways to increase your ability to help steer the industry into more conscious patterns.
