It’s an open secret in fashion. Unsold inventory goes to the incinerator; excess handbags are slashed so they can’t be resold; perfectly usable products are sent to the landfill to avoid discounts and flash sales. The European Union wants to put an end to these unsustainable practices. On Monday, [December 4, 2023], it banned the destruction of unsold textiles and footwear.

“It is time to end the model of ‘take, make, dispose’ that is so harmful to our planet, our health and our economy,” MEP Alessandra Moretti said in a statement. “Banning the destruction of unsold textiles and footwear will contribute to a shift in the way fast fashion manufacturers produce their goods.”

This comes as part of a broader push to tighten sustainable fashion legislation, with new policies around ecodesign, greenwashing and textile waste phasing in over the next few years. The ban on destroying unsold goods will be among the longer lead times: large businesses have two years to comply, and SMEs have been granted up to six years. It’s not yet clear on whether the ban applies to companies headquartered in the EU, or any that operate there, as well as how this ban might impact regions outside of Europe.

For many, this is a welcome decision that indirectly tackles the controversial topics of overproduction and degrowth. Policymakers may not be directly telling brands to produce less, or placing limits on how many units they can make each year, but they are penalising those overproducing, which is a step in the right direction, says Eco-Age sustainability consultant Philippa Grogan. “This has been a dirty secret of the fashion industry for so long. The ban won’t end overproduction on its own, but hopefully it will compel brands to be better organised, more responsible and less greedy.”

Clarifications to come

There are some kinks to iron out, says Scott Lipinski, CEO of Fashion Council Germany and the European Fashion Alliance (EFA). The EFA is calling on the EU to clarify what it means by both “unsold goods” and “destruction”. Unsold goods, to the EFA, mean they are fit for consumption or sale (excluding counterfeits, samples or prototypes)...

The question of what happens to these unsold goods if they are not destroyed is yet to be answered. “Will they be shipped around the world? Will they be reused as deadstock or shredded and downcycled? Will outlet stores have an abundance of stock to sell?” asks Grogan.

Large companies will also have to disclose how many unsold consumer products they discard each year and why, a rule the EU is hoping will curb overproduction and destruction...

Could this shift supply chains?

For Dio Kurazawa, founder of sustainable fashion consultancy The Bear Scouts, this is an opportunity for brands to increase supply chain agility and wean themselves off the wholesale model so many rely on. “This is the time to get behind innovations like pre-order and on-demand manufacturing,” he says. “It’s a chance for brands to play with AI to understand the future of forecasting. Technology can help brands be more intentional with what they make, so they have less unsold goods in the first place.”

Grogan is equally optimistic about what this could mean for sustainable fashion in general. “It’s great to see that this is more ambitious than the EU’s original proposal and that it specifically calls out textiles. It demonstrates a willingness from policymakers to create a more robust system,” she says. “Banning the destruction of unsold goods might make brands rethink their production models and possibly better forecast their collections.”

One of the outstanding questions is over enforcement. Time and again, brands have used the lack of supply chain transparency in fashion as an excuse for bad behaviour. Part of the challenge with the EU’s new ban will be proving that brands are destroying unsold goods, not to mention how they’re doing it and to what extent, says Kurazawa. “Someone obviously knows what is happening and where, but will the EU?”"

Even in 2024 the clothing company Next as to turn comments off their latest children's clothing advert because the model they used is *gasp* a black child. Fucking ridiculous, there's so much to be angry about in the UK and this is what these bigots pick?

where do you get your clothes from and what would you describe your stye as? I love ur account sm ♡

Hi love! Thanks so much <3

My favorite online shops are Moda Operandi, The Outnet, Farfetch, SSENSE, Luisa Via Roma, Net A Porter, Bergdorf Goodman, Selfridges, FWRD, The Frankie Shop, Pixie Market, COS, 7115 By Szeki, Manière de Voir, Everlane, Perfect White Tee, Rumored, Marcella NYC, Naadam, Lisa Maree, Leau, Dana Foley, Lilysilk, Assembly New York, and Nadine Merabi.

Some of my favorite brands are Nanushka, LouLou Studio, Éterne, Leset, The Frankie Shop (in-house label), LVIR, BITE Studios, Toteme, Norma Kamali, Ninety Percent, Frame, Simkhai, Cinq a Sept, The Range, Stand Studio, Staud, J.W. Anderson, MM6 Maison Margiela, Muiser Paris, Paris Georgia, St. Agni, Anna Quan, and Deadwood Studios.

Tons more too, but this is off the top of my head, lol. I work in fashion, so it's so fun to learn about/meet designers/try on new items for new/new to me brands over the course of a year or a season.

I would describe my style as a "Femme Fatale" meets "Parisian chic" aesthetic or edgy/glam minimalism meets dark Parisian style. I love classic, sharply-tailored silhouettes in all-black and a variety of fabrics (Satin, leather, wool, Pima cotton, etc.) updated with fun structural and cut-out detailing, trims, accents like pearls, lace, buttons, studs, sequins, etc. with some other neutral/color-blocking (with white, beige, grey, animal prints) thrown in there.

Hope this was helpful xx
