Sustainable Fashion
Fashion, by contrast, describes the social and temporal system that influences and “prompts” dress as a social signifier in a certain time and context. Philosopher Giorgio Agamben connects fashion to the qualitative Ancient Greek idea of kairos, which means “the best, critical, or opportune second”, and clothing to the quantitative concept of chronos, the personification of chronological or sequential time. Some attire firms are starting to buck these trends by becoming a member of initiatives to chop back on textile pollution and grow cotton more sustainably.
