Attijariwafa Bank launches initiative to limit single-use plastic bag consumption 

Sustainability in fashion is a path-breaking concept. Not that the textile industry has been steadily working towards making the industry a little greener than it was. But to accelerate from the present slow pace, we need technological and creative disruptions. We remember when Adidas went all the way to create sneakers from ocean waste. Many brands have been working towards such goals. The leather industry has been a painted target for both sustainable evangelists as well as animal lovers. Bioengineers from Provenance fabrics are now designing collagen molecules to create lab-made leather. Nano textile technology is also on the surge. It helps to add a special property to fabrics like odor repellency, temperature control, bacterial repellant, etc, without using harmful intermediaries. This protects both the user as well as the environment from harmful exposures. Japanese studio Nendo has collaborated with Italian studio Up To You Anthology, to design handbags people can assemble at home. Linear panels will cut down production lines and manufacturing costs.
