SAN FRANCISCO – The Apparel Impact Institute (Aii) has initiated a new project in Italy, through which luxury fashion firms Kering, Stella McCartney and Burberry will support the implementation and scaling of environmental programmes addressing the use of energy, water and chemistry in clothing supply chains.
“This partnership is important to the industry as it allows us to continue bringing Aii’s proven and future methodologies to Italy’s luxury apparel and footwear producers,” said Lewis Perkins, president, Aii. “Now is a critical moment to include environmental stewardship in the industry’s efforts to build back better through this work. We are anxious to begin implementing with our partners.”
