A theme this time is overproduction, as companies focus on price and not the planet - draining resources, impacting the environment and leading to consumers being increasingly detached from their purchases, says Guest Commenter, Candiani’s Simon Giuliani. Another consequence is the mountains of waste that are created, some of which is fuelling a vast second-hand clothes market.
Japanese brand Momotaro has relaunched with a new logo, website, store and designs. Masataka Suzuki, chief operating officer of parent group Japan Blue Inc, explains what makes the company stand out.
With the digital product passport looming, we find out how denim data can be plugged into the platforms, and hear how Yulex, Lycra and Hyosung are investing in lowering the carbon footprint of stretch denim.
Who sets the trends, where do the ideas come from? Tilmann Wrobel weights up how this is changing over time; we celebrate how denim mills take care of their employees; and find out that home is where the heart is for Paolo Gnutti.
We hope you enjoy the issue!
