| Abstract |
Adopting sustainable practices has been a key focus for the resource-and labor-intensive apparel industry toward achieving sustainable development goals. Accordingly, apparel firms have innovated and implemented various sustainable practices. Several recent studies have investigated the feasi-bility of sustainable practices and their antecedents. However, comprehensive documentation of such practices and their antecedents is needed to further motivate and guide apparel firms in implementing sustainable practices. This study reviews and summarizes the most recent developments regarding sustainable practices and their antecedents in the apparel in-dustry. Using the triple bottom line concept as a reference, the findings provide twenty-two practices that apparel firms can implement to enhance economic, social, and environmental sustainability. Moreover, the findings document fourteen ante-cedents of these sustainable practices. Finally, this study provides implications for the apparel industry and defines future research opportunities. |
