Abstract:

End-of-life uniforms and workwear account for around 11,000 tonnes of textile waste in Australia and only 1 per cent is recycled, with the rest discarded in landfills. Australia’s large mining industry operations do not currently engage in responsible employee uniforms and workwear management contributing to the problem of waste. In 2021, the Commonwealth Government of Australia supported the development of a product stewardship scheme to recycle uniforms and workwear to be launched in 2022 and awarded A$1 million in funding to the Australian Fashion Council to implement a National Clothing Pr

Abstract:

This research aims to analyze the economic diplomacy strategy carried out by Indonesia to export textile products, especially apparel, to Australia through the Indonesia Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreements (IA-CEPA) for 2020-2023. In this research, the method used is a descriptive method using interviews and literature study. The research results show that although the overall export trend shows positive results, there has been no significant change in exports of Indonesian textile products since IA-CEPA was implemented. This happens because there are still trade challenges

Abstract:

The global school uniform industry, primarily driven by linear production models, significantly contributes to textile waste and environmental degradation. In Australia, over 2000 tons of school uniforms are discarded annually, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable alternatives.

This article stems from a pilot project that identified fashion and textile businesses to inform a circular strategy for pre-consumer textile waste within South-East Queensland, Australia. The circular economy is seen as an overall intervention strategy to shift the fashion industry from a linear to a circular model of production and consumption. New approaches of circularity look at economic and social sustainability in cities and urban environments, designing circularity to enhance urban places and social wellbeing, and empower local communities.

AbstractThis article examines transnational connections between African American emancipation in the United States and Chinese and Indian indenture within the British Empire.

In British Honduras, colonial officials sought to bring emancipated African Americans to the colony as labor for sugar plantations. When this project failed, interest turned toward indentured Chi

Abstract:

Changes in the sheep industry over the last 20 years represent a trend that is unlikely to be reversed.

Wool and meat are now on an equal footing in terms of the economic value of each sector of the industry. Future profitability of both wool and sheep meat production depends on achieving a high rate of productivity gain and improving quality attributes valued by consumers. Wool and sheep meat cannot compete on price or volume with synt

In this context, the aim of this study was to evaluate the role of POD extracted from the VFCW P. australis leaves in the decolourization of AO7, which belongs to the very restricted group of bio-degradable azo dye

Abstract:

Within fashion and textiles, practices which transform existing textile waste materials are discussed using various terms, for example upcycling, remanufacturing, or redesign, however, this study will collectively refer to these as remaking practices. Through the examination of 38 cases of remake collaborations occurring within the Australian community between November 2019 to July 2023, this study explores how the fashion remake outcomes can be classified to more effectively support the development of different remaking practices. As a result, the paper proposes a remaking lexicon to encompas

Abstract:

Introduction Fashion has long been associated with resistance movements across Asia and Australia, from the hand-spun cotton Khadi of Mahatma Gandhi’s freedom struggle to the traditional ankle length robe worn by Tibetans in the ‘White Wednesday Movement’ (Singh et al.; Yangzom). There are many reasons why fashion and activism have been interlinked. Fashion can serve as a form of nonverbal communication (Crane), which can convey activists’ grievances and concerns while symbolising solidarity (Doerr). It can provide an avenue to enact individual agency against repressive, authoritarian regimes

Abstract:

Softness is one of the key elements of textile comfort and is one of the main considerations when consumers make purchasing decisions. In the wool industry, softness can reflect the quality and value of wool fibers. There is verifiable difference in subjective softness between Australian Soft Rolling Skin (SRS) wool and conventional Merino (CM) wool, yet the key factors responsible for this difference are not yet well understood. Fiber attributes, such as crimp (curvature), scale morphology, ortho-to-cortex (OtC) ratio and moisture regain, may have a significant influence on softness performan

Abstract:

Wearing clothing from the past is all the rage now. Different styles and aesthetics of vintage and historical clothing, original or appropriated, are popular with fashion wearers and home sewers. Social media is rich with images of anachronistic clothing and the major pattern companies have a large range of historical sewing patterns available. Butterick McCall, for example, have a Making History range of patterns for sewers of clothing from a range of historical periods up to the 1950s. The 1950s styled fashion is particularly popular with pattern producers. Yet little research exists that ex

Abstract:

The purpose of the article was to investigate the criticality of Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) to the direction of the international trade regime of the textiles and clothing (T&C) sector. The reason for selecting this sector is because RCEP block exported 50% of the global share of T&C products in 2019. Besides, this industry has been quite important from an employment generation point of view and a leading earner of foreign exchange for many nations around the world. Given the free trade agreement and an ambitious approach towards removing the majority of tariff

Introduction This article explores the phenomenon of the Creative City in the context of Aberdeen, Scotland’s third-largest city. The common perception of Aberdeen is likely to revolve around its status, for the last 50 years, as Europe’s Oil & Gas Capital. However, for more than a decade Aberdeen’s city planners have sought to incorporate creativity and culture in their placemaking. The most visible expression of this was the unsuccessful 2013 bid to become the UK City of Culture 2017 (CoC), which was referred to as a “reality check” by Marie Boulton (BBC), the councillor charged with the
