  • 👖DENIM REDESIGNED👖 A new set of guidelines has just been introduced by the @EllenMacArthurFoundation to help denim companies reduce waste, eliminate pollution and put circular practices into place. Called "The Jeans Redesign", it includes things like removing all metal rivets, stopping the use of all hazardous materials and ensuring all styles are made from at least 98% plant-based fibres. “Jeans are one of the most iconic clothing items in the world,” Francois Souchet, head of the company's @make_fashion_circular initiative, told @voguebusiness. “This was our chance to create a shared vision of what good [denim production] looks like, and to bring everyone together to achieve it.” It was conceived by more than 40 denim experts from academia, brands, retailers, manufacturers, collectors, sorters and NGOs.

  • ♻️SUSTAINABLE PACKAGING♻️ Ever had one of those situations of not quite understanding why something doesn't already exist? The refill market is one of them and an opportunity we believe many brands are missing out on. @waitroseandpartners , @lushcosmetics and @olay are just some of the players experimenting with refillable products, but there is huge growth potential for those wanting to up their sustainability game and minimize their plastic footprint to jump on this fully. The question is who is going to truly do it first and at scale? Read our latest article by @rachel_arthur on this topic now, link in bio.
  • 👚GLOSSIWEAR👚 Cult beauty brand @glossier has just announced the launch of a limited edition fashion line. The collection will be available from Wednesday July 17, and if its success in the cosmetics space is anything to go by, will no doubt be a sell out. Are these new influencer-led businesses the brand groups of the future? Is there anything they can't do? - #glossier #makeup #beauty #glossiwear #clothing #pink #fashion #retail #new #innovation #cult #skincare #limitededition #clothing #fashionable #collection #fashionline

  • 💋GAGA GLAMOUR💋 @ladygaga is planning to launch a new cosmetics line called Haus Laboratories @hauslabs.
