Tra severi regolamenti e crescente consapevolezza del pubblico, ogni industria è destinata ad avere un vantaggio competitivo ambientale e sociale insieme a quelli finanziari. L'industria della moda non fa eccezione. Il mercato della moda e del lusso è identificato dalla rapidità con cui un prodotto diventa obsoleto. Le imprese che producono vestiti, scarpe, borse e altri accessori producono rifiuti a una velocità schiacciante insostenibile, a causa del continuo cambiamento di stack. Devono immagazzinare quantità significative di tessuti e componenti non utilizzati per la produzione. Tutto sommato, l'industria della moda è una delle industrie a più alto impatto sul pianeta. Tuttavia, la crescente consapevolezza dei dannosi effetti ambientali del settore della moda ha ispirato l'avvento di un approccio sostenibile avanzato per l'organizzazione della progettazione, produzione e distribuzione di abbigliamento moda. In questo documento vengono analizzati nuovi approcci alla sostenibilità intrapresi dalle aziende nel settore della moda. La concettualizzazione di varie pratiche di sostenibilità di case studies a livello di prodotto e di processo, derivano proposizioni che testano la tendenza in atto che gli approcci sostenibili emergenti nel lusso e nella moda stanno sostituendo quelli dominanti e insostenibili. Parole chiave: Sostenibilità, filiera della moda sostenibile

Abstract
Amidst stringent regulations and growing public awareness, every industry is bound to have environmental and social competitive advantage along with financial ones. Fashion industry is no exception. The fashion and luxury market is identified by the swiftness with which a product becomes outdated. Enterprises producing clothes, shoes, bags and other accessories produce wastes at an overwhelming unsustainable rate, due to the continuous change of stack. They have to store significant quantities of not-to-be-used textiles and components for production. All in all, fashion industry is one of the highest impact industries on the planet. However, growing awareness of the damaging environmental effects of the fashion industry has inspired the advent of advanced sustainable approach of organizing designing, production, and distribution of fashion garment. In this paper, fresh approaches towards sustainability undertaken by companies in fashion industry are analyzed. Conceptualization of various such sustainability practices of case enterprises at product and process level, derive propositions that test the ongoing trend that emerging sustainable approaches in luxury and fashion is replacing the dominant, unsustainable ones.
