Abstract
Fashion produces more than one hundred billion items of clothing annually based on a business model that promotes overconsumption. In addition, because most of the items are made of petroleum-based synthetic fibers that are cheap and low-quality means there is little product durability or longevity. The main issues impeding environmental sustainability and creating dire social consequences are overproduction and overconsumption.
