CHICAGO - A new report on the circularity performance of the largest 100 fashion brands operating in Europe says that just three - Patagonia, The North Face and Levi’s - are achieving 'acceptable' results.
Global management consultants Kearney produced the report, entitled 'Can circularity save the fashion industry?', to examine whether brands were meeting their claims to have moved towards circularity.
It created a Circular Fashion Index (CFX) to rank brands on eight measures based on their efforts to extend the life span of their garments, and also the potential impact of these circular strategies on the environment.
