THE FASHION INDUSTRY GETS A REMODEL: MOVING AWAY FROM FAST FASHION... This article discusses a new initiative called Fashion ReModel, which aims to revolutionize the fashion industry by promoting business models that don't rely solely on selling new clothes. Here's a breakdown of the key points: The Problem: The traditional "fast fashion" model, focused on high production volume and low prices, is environmentally unsustainable. The Solution: The Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMA) is leading the Fashion ReModel initiative. This initiative focuses on a circular economy approach, where clothes are kept in use for longer through practices like: Rental Resale Repair Remake The Potential: Research by EMA suggests that by 2030, circular business models could represent a $700 billion opportunity and make up 23% of the global fashion market. The Participating Brands: Eight leading brands have joined the initiative, including Arc'teryx, Arket, COS, H&M Group, Primark, Reformation, Weekday, and Zalando. The Focus: Decoupling Revenue from Production: The initiative aims to find ways for companies to make money without constantly producing new clothes. Scaling Circular Business Models: The focus is on making rental, resale, repair, and remake services more widespread and accessible. Product Design: Encouraging the design of clothes that are durable, repairable, and made from recycled or renewable materials. The Drivers: Three key factors are crucial for achieving a circular fashion economy: Product Design: Clothes that are built to last. Circular Business Models: Services that extend the life of existing garments. Infrastructure: A network to connect all the players in the fashion system efficiently. This initiative represents a significant step towards a more sustainable fashion industry. By encouraging a shift towards keeping clothes in use longer, the environmental impact of fashion can be significantly reduced. #Sostenibilidad #ModaSostenible #ImpactoAmbiental #Poliéster #Microplásticos #EconomíaCircular #CuidadoDelPlaneta

Go through your wardrobe, and you’ll likely find at least one hand-me-down, a vintage piece from your auntie, or perhaps a second-hand item you can't stop wearing. So why isn't second-hand fashion more present on runways and in high-fashion spaces? This year, that changed. eBay, a pioneer in second-hand fashion, has turned heads by showcasing their "Pre-Loved" collection at both New York and London Fashion Weeks. They're redefining luxury, proving that style isn’t just about what's new—it's about history, creativity, and sustainability. This shift is part of a larger movement. From Sustainable Fashion Week in the UK to Copenhagen Fashion Week's focus on eco-conscious brands and LA's Vegan Fashion Week®, the demand for second-hand fashion is growing. By bringing "pre-loved" pieces to the runway, eBay is changing how we perceive value in fashion. It’s no longer just about trends; it's about the stories behind the clothes. Every garment carries its own, and now, fashion is celebrating this narrative. Will "pre-loved" become the new "must-have" for fashion lovers everywhere? We think it's already happening. 📸 Credit: eBay #fashion #fashionweek #newyork #london

Nice move 👏🏻 H&M kicked off the designer guest concept back in 2004 "High Fashion meets Fast Fashion." #HM has also stepped up with new premium lines like "Adorables" for kids and babies, and "Atelier" for men. These launches signal a clear push to elevate its value proposition and strengthen its core brand, which still likely drives over 90% of its revenue. #Uniqlo (Fast Retailing), #Zara (Inditex), and #Mango have been on a similar path, teaming up with guest designers, dropping collabs, or bringing on experienced creative directors to enhance their brand value. It’s a strategic move to justify higher price points and keep a step ahead of factory-to-consumer competitors like SHEIN, Temu… 🎯Differentiate or Disappear! If your brand’s value proposition isn’t distinct you risk getting lost in the ocean of sameness and ultimately being swallowed by brandless, low-cost alternatives. #guestdesigner #collabs #valueproposition

Gigi Hadid's DHL tape dress, unveiled at the Vetements Spring 2025 show, exemplifies a bold fusion of fashion and branding, transforming an everyday item into a high-fashion statement. This innovative piece, crafted entirely from DHL packaging tape, not only captures attention but also ignites discussions about the boundaries of fashion and consumer culture. From a marketing perspective, the collaboration between Vetements and DHL serves as a masterclass in brand visibility. By associating with a high-profile model like Hadid, DHL elevates its image, appealing to a younger demographic while reinforcing its position as a creative player in the industry. The organic social media buzz generated by Hadid’s striking appearance acts as free advertising, amplifying both brands' reach. Critics have noted that while the dress challenges traditional aesthetics, it also risks being perceived as gimmicky. However, it undeniably pushes the envelope of what fashion can represent in contemporary society. As brands increasingly seek to engage consumers through innovative collaborations, Hadid's DHL tape dress stands out as a significant cultural commentary on the evolving landscape of fashion. #GigiHadid #DHL #Vetements #FashionWeek #ParisFashionWeek #HighFashion #AvantGarde #Branding #FashionStatement #CulturalCommentary #InnovativeDesign #SocialMediaBuzz #FashionTrends #CreativeCollaboration #RunwayLooks #FashionCritique #StyleInspo #FashionIcon #DHLTapeDress #VetementsSpring2025 #FashionMarketing #ConsumerCulture #FashionInnovation

As London Fashion Week opens, and eBay is using the platform to show second hand fashion on the runway, I shared some thoughts on resale with Bella Webb for Vogue Business. In short: 👏 Pop culture is critical in normalising new behaviours and broadening the reach and appeal of secondhand. ⚠ Secondhand needs to be developed in a way that does not fuel overconsumption nor serves as a tool to accelerate the linear model. 📏 Measuring success can be looked at company level - e.g. share of revenues - but is mostly relevant at industry level: "𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙜𝙤𝙖𝙡 𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙖𝙣 𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙨𝙮𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙢 𝙤𝙛 𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙮𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙖 𝙘𝙞𝙧𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙧 𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙮, 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙖𝙣 𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙨𝙮𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙢 𝙤𝙛 𝙘𝙞𝙧𝙘𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙧 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙚𝙨."

Industry experts Joëlle Grunberg, Linda Liu, Maurice Obeid, and Colleen Baum have authored a fascinating study for McKinsey & Company that has been the topic of discussion for us in the last few days with our network: is New York still the fashion capital it once was? This report names several factors including the decentralization of influence, industry consolidation, and the high cost of living and doing business in the city that are posing challenges to New York's reputation as a fashion center. Iconic multi-brand retailers Barneys New York, Henri Bendel, Lord + Taylor, and Opening Ceremony have closed. 98% of luxury segment growth is controlled by four Europe-based organizations: Hermès, LVMH, Kering, and Richemont. Instead of debuting their collections at #NewYorkFashionWeek, many American fashion labels are choosing to present at Fashion Weeks around the globe. The report also examines the importance of nurturing emerging talent - while NYC houses incredible fashion institutions like The Fashion Institute of Technology, LIM College, and Parsons School of Design - The New School, the overall educational sector could benefit from strengthening its focus on the business components of the fashion industry like finance, merchandising, and supply chain/logistics.  Additionally, collaboration across industries could strengthen New York’s position in the global fashion scene - with SXSW specifically cited as a great example of a cross-industry event. The city's rich history and diverse cultural landscape, alongside strategic efforts to revive industry demand, could help reclaim its status as a leading fashion hub. Congratulations to Joelle and her co-authors for producing such an insightful and optimistic study on how New York can reclaim its position in the global fashion world. #nyfw #fashionindustry #business #mckinsey #industryinsights
