Book excerpt: The collaboration between the Textile Department of the University of Minho and the Brazilian Association of Studies and Research (ABEPEM) has led to an international platform for the exchange of research in the field of Fashion and Design: CIMODE. This platform is designed as a biennial congress that takes place in different European and Latin American countries with the co-organization of another university in each location. The current edition was jointly organized by the University of Minho and the Centro Superior de Diseño de Moda (CSDMM) - Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. CIMODE's mission is to explore fashion and design from a social, cultural, psychological and communication perspective, and to bring together different approaches and perceptions of practice, education and the culture of design and fashion. Through an interdisciplinary dialogue and intercultural perspective, CIMODE wants to generate and present new scenarios about the present and future of fashion and design. ‘DISEÑO AL REVÉS’ (‘BACKWARD DESIGN’) was the central theme of the 4th CIMODE (Madrid, Spain, 21-23 May 2018), which produced a highly topical and relevant number of academic publications presented in this book.

Fair trade and sustainable fashion expert Safia Minney draws on her extensive knowledge and personal experience to call attention to the human hardship that goes hand-in-hand with producing our clothes, and highlights what governments, business leaders, and consumers can do to call time on this unnecessary suffering. The product of a successful crowdfunding campaign, Slave to Fashion celebrates those fighting for justice and the many initiatives that are taking place. It contains a practical toolkit that all consumers can use to demand change from the companies that produce our clothes. Safia Minney is a pioneer in ethical business.

This book covers responsible business practices and sustainability in the fashion industry from the raw fibre stage, through production, to the point of customer consumption.

A perfect resource for students studying fashion and for those working in the sector who wish to identify the latest thinking as they plan sustainability strategies, the book is divided into four clear sections. Part I of the book examines sustainability in the supply chain by identifying the three pillars of sustainability (social, economic and environmental) and considers how fashion brands are innovating in this area. Part II looks at fashion logistics and supply chain operations by assessing fibre, yarn and fabric considerations, logistical issues for both garment production, and service delivery, stock control, transportation, barriers and risks. Part III develops the logistics theme further by identifying recent trends and case studies that highlight agility and lean management structures, and the application of transparency enhancing radio frequency identification (RFID).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Responsible Fashion Company, Rinaldi and Testa argue that the fashion industry is at a crossroads: the need for a global shift to a sustainable model has never been more urgent. Yet, they demonstrate that we are witnessing a revolution led by conscious consumers and enlightened companies, who are redefining the rules of the fashion market. The question is: when will the rest of the industry catch up? Rinaldi and Testa raise a fundamental but often neglected issue in the fashion sustainability debate: long-term equilibrium can only be achieved by integrating economic goals with environmental, social and ethical values. "The Responsible Fashion Company" provides a clear overview of the theory, challenges and opportunities of sustainability in the industry and demonstrates how fashion companies can achieve competitive advantage through sustainable innovation. The authors show how leading fashion companies are challenging traditional thinking and present inspiring examples from pioneers such as Gucci, Levi's, Timberland and Brunello Cucinelli, who create quality products without leaving a negative impact behind.Refreshing and timely, The Responsible Fashion Company is essential reading for the socially conscious consumer and anyone with a professional or personal interest in the fashion, design and luxury industries.

Book Synopsis Sustainability in Fashion and Textiles by : Miguel Angel Gardetti
Download or read book Sustainability in Fashion and Textiles written by Miguel Angel Gardetti and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no doubt that the textile industry – the production of clothing, fabrics, thread, fibre and related products – plays a significant part in the global economy. It also frequently operates with disregard to its environmental and social impacts. The textile industry uses large quantities of water and outputs large quantities of waste. As for social aspects, many unskilled jobs have disappeared in regions that rely heavily on these industries. Another serious and still unresolved problem is the flexibility textile industry companies claim to need. Faced with fierce international competition, they are increasingly unable to offer job security. This is without even considering the informal-sector work proliferating both in developing and developed countries. Child labour persists within this sector despite growing pressure to halt it.Fashion demands continuous consumption. In seeking to own the latest trends consumers quickly come to regard their existing garments as inferior, if not useless. "Old" items become unwanted as quickly as new ones come into demand. This tendency towards disposability results in the increased use of resources and thus the accelerated accumulation of waste. It is obvious to many that current fashion industry practices are in direct competition with sustainability objectives; yet this is frequently overlooked as a pressing concern.It is, however, becoming apparent that there are social and ecological consequences to the current operation of the fashion industry: sustainability in the sector has been gaining attention in recent years from those who believe that it should be held accountable for the pressure it places on the individual, as well as its contribution to increases in consumption and waste disposal.This book takes a wide-screen approach to the topic, covering, among other issues: sustainability and business management in textile and fashion companies; value chain management; use of materials; sustainable production processes; fashion, needs and consumption; disposal; and innovation and design.The book will be essential reading for researchers and practitioners in the global fashion business.
Book Synopsis The Golden Dawn of Italian Fashion by : Rosanna Masiola
Download or read book The Golden Dawn of Italian Fashion written by Rosanna Masiola and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-06 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book written about Maria Monaci Gallenga (1880-1944), the enigmatic fashion artist and designer marginalized after decades of fortune and fame. The daughter of Ernesto Monaci, the illustrious philologist and mentor of Luigi Pirandello, Gallenga was the wife of Pietro Gallenga, a medical scientist related to the Gallenga Stuart family. The text outlines Maria Monaci Gallenga’s impact on the world of fashion, contextualizing her work and that of other forgotten fashion designers in the 1920s and 1930s. It sheds light on her cultural impact and idealism as a business entrepreneur in Europe and America promoting Italian art and culture. It also highlights her engagement in social and educational activities after she retired from the world of fashion, and explains the reasons behind her marginalization and disappearance, and the obstacles and constraints she faced during the years of Fascism. The book also considers the influence of the British arts and crafts movement and the vision of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood on her aesthetic vision, and, in turn, investigates Maria Gallenga’s influence on late Pre-Raphaelite paintings (Frank Cadogan Cowper) inspired by her designs and fabrics. The discovery of her fabrics and accessories by the Fendi sisters in the collections of the Tirelli House eventually sparked a new interest in her models, now enhanced by digital media.

This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface Art, Design, Communication and Fashion: An Interdisciplinary Approach; is a thought-provoking book for academics, researchers, doctoral students and policymakers interested in fine arts, design, fashion and the field, providing valuable information on contemporary issues in art, design, fashion. In this book; the first chapter aims to prepare pre-service teachers while serving the community by addressing the previously identified needs with an emphasis on the pedagogical methodology of service learning (S-L). S-L is different from volunteering and internships. In this context, the process of implementing S-L at the Royal Conservatory of Music of Granada is described. Popular culture is defined as a way of life that the majority of people in society live or will live. In the second chapter, visual art teachers' views on popular culture and approaches in classrooms are investigated. The third chapter highlights the potential for strategically designed systems, known as circadian lighting, to have a beneficial impact on people's health, alertness, productivity, and more. Since the fourth chapter is about holistic knowledge of the design process in fashion design, which is one of the fundamental skills for any graduate in the field, it is aimed to diagnose the curricular knowledge of the graduates of fashion design at the Federal Institute of Rio Grande do Norte (IFRN) - Caicó campus in the context of the idea that the student of Fashion Design should have a theoretical and practical mastery of the contents. Also this chapter aims to diagnose the level of mastery of curricular content by undergraduates in Fashion Design at IFRN – Caicó. The fifth chapter explains whether the materials of cardboard boxes and umbrellas can be recycled in fashion, as well as whether a garment can be created from the materials, in the context of economic, environmental and social sustainability concepts. The sixth chapter provides examples of how the artist uses symbols to convey a message of protection and attract attention. In general, considerations in the context of mythology studies include a close analysis of works of art that use mythological themes and symbols to represent ecosystems, and an assessment of the cultural and historical contexts in which these works of art were created. It is thought that this chapter will contribute to the ongoing study of how art fits into a broader tradition of mythical representations of natural environments and environmentalism in art. The seventh chapter discusses some sustainable design products, taking into account the importance given to the product life cycle in Portugal in the context of developing products with national and environmentally friendly materials that have the agreed-upon value for material culture. The authors of this book present a wealth of literature and research that will contribute to an understanding of the role of decision-makers and international organizations in the field of fine art in promoting growth and development. The book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in learning about the most recent trends and emerging issues in the fine art field.
