Luxury brands need to rethink their approach for a generation of shoppers who are more frugal and less willing to spend to look

As rising inflation and interest rates dent disposable income, Charlie Porter re-evaluates his habit of buying high-end fashion, writes the @FinancialTimes. It is the reflection of an impoverished fashion enthusiast during this period of "deep economic crisis" who begins to think positively about the value of old shoes and old clothes. It's about extending their life cycle and ensuring that things that can be reused don't end up in landfills. [It's time to rethink our approach to luxury fashion – FT]

Supply problems have plagued the retail sector this year, forcing Walmart and Target with full warehouses to cut orders, for example. Adidas cuts its forecast for the year in a sign of growing uncertainty. The US will enter recession this year. Ukraine, Russia and the United Kingdom already are. The IMF confirms that global growth will slow to 2.7% next year, down from 3.2% this year and 6% in 2021. ['Worst Is Yet to Come' for Retailers Facing Recession – SJ]

It's hard for fashion to get rid of plastic

Big brands, from Adidas to Patagonia, are on track to eliminate virgin polyester from their products, but almost all the recycled polyester available on the market today comes from plastic bottles, not old clothes. And once it's turned into textiles, that plastic is much harder to keep in circulation than if it were left a bottle that could be recycled again and again.  [Fashion's Plastic Addiction Is Harder to Shake Than it Seems – BoF]

The Danish government fell because of the minks killing, but this disrupted the fur business and pushed many luxury brands towards synthetic materials

Mette Frederiksen, the Social Democratic prime minister, called the most Eurosceptic in the country's history, has announced early elections to avoid a vote of no confidence by her left-wing allies. The reason for the vote: the killing of 15 million minks for health reasons at the beginning of the Covid-19 epidemic. Recently, a commission ruled that the decision was unconstitutional.  [Mette Frederiksen: Jeg har begået fejl - men ikke om mink – LandbrugsAvisen]

Maliha Shoaib argues in an article on @voguebusiness: "Brands are casting 'diverse' models. But they're still not challenging Eurocentric beauty norms" [Vogue].  The catwalks are becoming more diverse, but casting decisions are still filtered through a Eurocentric lens. Vogue asks models, designers and casting directors how to break down barriers to meaningful change.
