The topic of the dissertation is "the impact of the fashion industry and the change for
sustainability." The purpose of this dissertation is to present the impacts of the fashion
industry at an environmental, social, and economic level but also to highlight the opportunity
given to us to change the current situation. We focus on the fashion industry because it is an
important, interesting, and contemporary topic that not only affects the environment but also
human health.
More precisely, the activities of the fashion industry are largely responsible for the
environmental destruction. The problem has taken on great proportions as it has expanded
globally. Solving this complex problem is particularly important as it affects people, both
occupationally and health-wise, the environment and the economy. The countries affected by
its industrial activities are directly facing this problem. In today's era, technological
advancements and change in mindset has people adopting the mindset of change for the
purpose of sustainability.
In the context of this thesis, we were led to the following conclusions. To begin with, the
environmental issue arising from fashion activities is now known to the general public. People
are increasingly trying to implement sustainable practices such as reducing their waste, using
natural fiber clothing, recycling, reusing, renting clothing, and using new technologies for
sustainability. Even through various researches, the change in consumer behavior towards
sustainability and green aesthetics is confirmed.
But we realize that the solution to this complex problem lies not only in changing consumer
behavior but also in the cooperation of the companies themselves. The same companies must
adapt to the new data in order to significantly limit the negative effects of their activities on
the environment. Based on the above, the effort of Greek fashion companies that apply
sustainable practices with the aim of the implementation of the sustainable vision,seems
important.
