In an era where environmental consciousness is rapidly becoming a priority, the luxury textile industry stands at a crucial crossroads. As consumers increasingly demand products that not only offer elegance and opulence but also align with sustainable values, luxury brands are facing a paradigm shift in their approach.

The book examines the intricate relationship between luxury textiles and sustainability, offering insights, analyses, and practical solutions for crafting a zero-waste future in the high-end fashion industry.

The book serves as a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to navigate the complexities of sustainable textile production while maintaining the essence of luxury and craftsmanship. Through a collaborative effort, the work presented here sets the stage for a future where luxury textiles captivate the senses and inspire a profound sense of environmental responsibility, paving the way toward a zero-waste future in high-end fashion.
