Read the introduction and chapter 1: There Is No Such Thing as Sustainable Fashion from Lucianne Tonti's book, Sundressed: Natural Fabrics and the Future of Clothing
https://islandpress.org/books/sundressed
"Each chapter deep dives into the history, present and possible future of a different natural fibre. Together they form a tapestry of possibilities for mending a broken industry. For those working in the rag trade it is essential reading; for everyone else, the book is a well-taught lesson in the true cost (and value) of clothing."
The Guardian
"In prose as stylish as her fashion sense, Lucianne Tonti shows how a combination of love of clothes and love of nature can 'subvert the take-make-waste model that is driving fashion’s enormous environmental footprint'."
