In a comprehensive survey of this highly pertinent subject, academic Sandy Black examines the way the fashion industry is changing to accommodate the environmental concerns of the twenty first century, presenting alternate practices and assessing their feasibility. Using case studies of designers from the catwalks and the high street, including Katharine Hamnett, Marks and Spencer and Linda Loudermilk, the book illustrates how these processes are finding their way into the industry, and shows how ethical fashion has moved on from its traditional connotations of hemp shirts and rope sandals.
