Reimagining Circular Fashion: Crafts' Role in Sustainable Development

Archana Puri, Dr. Pooja Gaba Adlakha

Abstract: The circular economy aims to minimize waste through the reuse, repair, and recycling of resources. This study explores two strategies for achieving circularity: slowing resource loops by designing durable products and closing loops through recycling and disassembly. It highlights the vital connection between circular fashion and traditional Indian crafts, which are often sustainable yet threatened by mass production. By promoting longevity and reducing waste, traditional crafts contribute significantly to the circular economy. The study advocates for collaboration among designers, artisans, and consumers to foster a sustainable fashion ecosystem that values craftsmanship while addressing environmental challenges. Embracing these principles allows the fashion industry to transition from a linear model to a circular one, benefiting both people and the planet through more responsible production and consumption practices.

Keywords: Circular fashion, Circular product Design Strategies, Traditional Crafts
