Adding to the issue of pollution, also comes the problem of over production within the fashion industry. We are not aware that 30 per cent of garments and clothing made in this world are such that consumers would desist buying, the report adds.

This enormous excess of clothing is turned to landfill or burned. This act is simply at which is completely shameful considering there are ways in which clothing can easily be reused and recycled.

This year particularly, there has been much criticism and judgment towards the fashion industry from people in all areas of experience. Essentially, there are too many clothes in the world and our greediness combined with unsustainable consumption is leading us towards major economic and environmental trouble, the report divulges.

Overproduction in fashion is the process of producing a much higher number of goods compared to the demand. Therefore, the manufacturer’s factories are too big in size and large amounts of products that are left unsold build up. A smarter design process is how this problem will eventually erode with clearer communication between brands and factories and creating a business plan that caters for sustainability.

These smarter design procedures are increasingly being applied on a much larger scale with both accomplished and new designers looking to overcome this issue. The T-shared zero waste tee is high in quality, made with the most admirable organic materials, each custom to the buyer and made to last.
