To be sure, what occurs after purchase when clothing is taken home for use is a carbon intensive phase of the product's lifespan that is squarely within the clothing user's control and responsibility. Decreasing the purchase of new garments has the greatest potential to reduce the global carbon emissions associated with fashion consumption, and prolonging clothing's utilization are consumer habits considered critical to this aim. Clothing use, manifest in the wear, care, and repair practice, are a linchpin in determining how much and how quickly fashion becomes waste. Though these use behaviors clearly advance sustainable clothing consumption, the least is known about what occurs between purchase and disposal or why. It is also important to develop a method to measure sustainable use practice and explore the influence of personal factors that determine engagement in such. This research study examined how personal factors (including fashion trend sensitivity, style orientation, frugality) influence sustainable clothing use practices (wear, care, and repair). A quantitative questionnaire was administered online to a representative sample of 420 U.S. consumers. A multi-level path analysis was used to test a proposed model. The results indicate that fashion trend sensitivity, style orientation, and frugality positively influence sustainable clothing use practices. Further, findings reveal that these personal factors explain 80% of the variance in sustainable clothing use, highlighting the critical role of use practice in shaping sustainable clothing behavior.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34617,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner and Responsible Consumption","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142527804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study focuses on the gap between the demand and supply of circularity by investigating transitioning profiles of consumers and manufacturing companies and examining their symbiotic roles in shaping a systemic circular transition. Using two extensive surveys involving 1000 consumers and 1443 manufacturing companies in Italy, and employing a cluster analysis methodology, we examined pro-environmental purchasing profiles among consumers and varying levels of circular practice integration among companies. The cluster analysis reveals four different consumer cluster based on their attitudes towards CE during the purchasing and post-purchasing phases. While the majority focused only on a single purchasing aspect, approximately one-third consistently optimized, preserved, and enhanced product value throughout the purchase phase and post-purchase use. Conversely, companies were grouped into five clusters according to their varying levels of circularity integration across the product life cycle. Only a small subset of companies fully embraced circularity throughout their entire product life cycle, with most concentrating their efforts on specific phases of the value chain. The findings highlight a significant gap between circular demand and supply: while the biggest cluster of companies comprises linear manufacturers, linear consumers represent the smallest segments. This underscores the need for comprehensive engagement from both manufacturers and consumers in shaping circular production and consumption. Based on a stakeholder perspective, the study opens up a discussion on how to bridge this gap, emphasizing the role of consumers with pro-circular behaviors in pushing companies to integrate circularity principles more thoroughly, and the role of companies in raising the awareness of linear consumers about the impact of their purchasing choices. By profiling circular companies and consumers and unveiling their behavioral tendencies, this research provides actionable insights for policymakers and managers navigating the circular transition.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":34617,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner and Responsible Consumption","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142527797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Qualitative analysis reveals that motivations for decluttering include reducing garment over-ownership, creating space, and finding emotional relief. Participants gained insights into the value of their garments, their reasons for possession, and their consumption habits, helping them establish future consumption goals. Quantitative findings from a longitudinal survey add to the qualitative insights by showing that reflective decluttering was associated with reduced clothing acquisition, although a slight rebound occurred after six months.

In response, the concept of slow fashion has been gaining increased attention in recent years, offering sustainable and circular alternatives to fast fashion. Luxury fashion, traditionally known for its heritage, exclusivity, and craftsmanship, exhibits elements similar to slow fashion, thereby exerting considerable influence on industry trends and consumer behaviour. This study explores the drivers shaping the luxury fashion landscape and the evolving circular economy and sustainability trends within the UK, a key global influencer in the luxury fashion domain. Luxury fashion's impact extends beyond its niche market, often setting benchmarks for innovation and sustainable practices that influence the broader fashion industry. Leveraging readily available qualitative and quantitative data from LinkedIn profiles, this research employs Latent Dirichlet Allocation analysis to uncover relevant topics within a dataset comprising 1115 companies registered in the “Apparel and Fashion” and “Textiles” industries. Five key drivers emerge, including Artful Creations in Fashion, Time-Honoured Craftsmanship, The Art of Style and Design, The Pinnacle of Retail Excellence, and A Personalised Style Experience. Additionally, utilising the Google Collab Platform and Python language, this study identifies circular economy and sustainability trends within luxury fashion.

Current practices in the industry inadequately address sustainability concerns, leading to a critical gap in integrating environmental considerations into core business models. The lack of sustainability considerations contributes to climate degradation and undermines the industry's long-term success and resilience. This observation signifies the need for a more systematic trajectory toward total decarbonization of the industry through the implementation of sustainable practices across its value chain. This work aims to develop a conceptual framework of sustainability assessment for a case study in the event and convention sector integrating two indicators: greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption. The result identified a critical gap in current practices regarding the insufficient integration of sustainability assessment into the core financial business models of firms. The authors propose a new approach to address this by integrating economic impact analysis through the employment of the Return of Sustainability Investments – discovered as the most effective sustainability economic impact assessment method in this study. To facilitate optimized implementation, a multilevel strategy framework enabling the adoption of a sustainability assessment is presented in this paper.
