* Takes a truly holistic and interdisciplinary approach to sustainable fashion management
* Fashion Management is growing in popularity as a postgraduate degree throughout the world, with UK institutions particularly well recognised as course providers. Sustainability is increasingly covered as a core module.
* Competing titles are either research-based and technical or focus on one specific area of fashion sustainability, such as materials. This text provides a much more comprehensive and interdisciplinary outlook as well as a practical approach, combining theory with practical application from a management perspective.

'We live in times of super complexity, due to a multitude of understandings in an unknowable world. There has never been so much interest in fashion and sustainability; hardly surprising due to fashion's industrial and social activity being directly and indirectly complicity in climate change, biodiversity loss, social inequality and wellbeing concerns. However, we are very far from having learnt how to thrive as humans in a more than human world. This book takes a much-needed, pragmatic and illustrative approach to fashion as a professional practice that connects a range of disciplines. It informs decision-making and idea-generation for a range of learners that can be applied across and beyond fashion's activities.'
Dilys Williams, Professor of Fashion, Design and Sustainability, Director Centre for Sustainable Fashion, a UAL research centre based at London College of Fashion.
