Recenzii

This is a primer for future fashion game changers.
There are other books out there but they all focus on specific aspects of sustainability in fashion. I am looking for a wider, more theoretical approach and I feel this book will fill those needs.
The unique value lies in its combination of design and merchandising concepts. This integration of topics fills a gap in the teaching literature. The integrated discussion of topics is well done and aligns with my course because of the topics I cover, which include sustainable design, sourcing and social responsibility, and fair trade/trade policy.
The comprehensive view of sustainability covers more topics than previous books I have used.
