Title How consumer shopping habits affect willingness to embrace sustainable fashion
Year 2023
Published
Abstract Sustainability represents the greatest economic challenge of the current century, speaking to the need to move from a profit orientation that disregards social and environmental costs to one that properly considers such dimensions (i.e. the circular economy). The clothing industry has a strong negative impact on the environment and, for this reason, a quick transition from 'fast' to 'circular' fashion is needed. The present work aimed at analysing how consumer habits determine willingness to embrace circular fashion, with a special focus on the second-hand (i.e. re-use) market. Based on questionnaire data, consumers were classified into fast or slow fashion groups. The results revealed that fast fashion consumers mainly focused on price and had a lower propensity to purchase second-hand garments. Hence, interventions to increase consumer awareness of the environmental impact of fast fashion are needed.
