China and the world focus on sustainable fashion
The world is paying more and more attention to sustainability, especially within the fashion industry as companies and consumers seek eco-friendly products and solutions. According to a study published by the R.I.S.E. Sustainable Fashion Lab in October 2020 around 85% of consumers surveyed said they will not purchase from brands with a negative environmental image, demonstrating the clear changing commitments among Chinese consumers. Follow the movement and source for sustainable products this October at Intertextile Apparel!
