TO - Efficiency & Eco-friendly processes
Eco-textile products are considered to have some or all of the following characteristics (Challa, 2017):
- Made using organic materials
- No use of harmful chemicals, bleaches, or dyes
- Can be made from recycled or reused textiles or materials (e.g., plastic bottles)
- Quality and made to last
- Fair trade certified, or produced where workers are paid a fair wage and have decent working

Current model Design for co-creation or customization
“ Products that can be customizable offer the chance to create a deeper bonding between the user and the product.” (Chapman, 2005). Extension of the product lifespan It requires a new mindset

Pulse of the Fashion Industry (2017) identifies overstock as one of the most pressing issues in the industry
FROM - Overproduction
Lack of communication and exclusion of suppliers Poor demand planning and production scheduling Early, high-volume
- rders

“Design for need” Production-to-demand TO - Made to order
Artificial intelligence 3D printing On-demand manufacture

FROM - Lack of access for small designers

“Democratization of technology” : the process by which access to technology rapidly continues to become more accessible to more people → Material selection can have a big impact: brands can control it, so it is important that they can source whatever they want; → Important: those businesses that are able to create a link between the demand and the
- ffer, are extremely important in this industry-transformation.
TO - Democratization of design process

Local production is a way of minimizing carbon-footprint; Shorter lead time It allows more control over the supply chain, because it is possible to visit the factories; If produced in Europe, because of the regulation, the factory probably has a better eco-profile Market strategy: consumers trust more “Made in Italy” compared to “Made in China” More jobs and wealthy in the community
TO - Localized production
