The fashion industry uses vast amounts of raw materials and energy. How can a new economic model help to reduce waste and promote creativity - of designers, manufacturers and consumers?

Circular economy specialist Lynn Wilson explores the key principles which underpin circular fashion systems, focusing on Scotland’s textile heritage and future technologies.
