WHY?

Fashion ●

●

Textiles activities are big employers and important contributors to cultural distinctiveness – e.g. a convergence of Malay, Chinese and Indian influences.

Sustainability WHY?

Fashion is one of the most wasteful industries in the world.

The Textile Industry uses Significant Amounts of Resources

Malaysia reportedly produced two million kilogrammes of textile waste a day in 2018.

Clothing takes many years to decompose; a cotton t-shirt can take up to six years to degrade, while nylon textiles can take anywhere between 40 and 50 years to break down.

Therefore we..

The danger, was that synthetic fabrics could be detrimental to the environment as it did not decompose, while on the other hand, the fashion industry was growing at an incredibly fast rate with new clothing lines every season.
