Eco-chic: The Fashion Paradox by Sandy Black
“Fashion and environmental awareness are two concerns that do not comfortably sit side by side. Over the past ten years, high street fashion, led by global chains, has become ever more affordable and disposable. Leading academic Sandy Black examines the way the fashion industry is changing to accommodate the environmental concerns of the twenty first century. Using case studies of designers from the catwalks and the high street, including Katherine Hamnett, and Marks and Spencer the book illustrates how ethical fashion has moved on from its traditional connotations of hemp shirts and rope sandals.
