Fashion has a sustainability problem.
​
It's hard to imagine that an industry that clothes billions and employs millions contributes to some of the world's worst social and environmental crises.
#SUSSfacts
But there's hope brewing.
Of course, these are overwhelming and scary problems. But wheels are turning and the world is at the cusp of change. Across India, where clothes are made and consumerism is rising, there's hope brewing as sustainability hustlers -- individuals and organizations -- are working to improve the industry, challenge the norms, and make fashion a force for good.
We bring them together.
SUSS is a passionate community and platform of conscious consumers, designers, brands, students, industry professionals, writers, film-makers, and others to discover new ideas, support each other, and collaborate on projects. The bigger picture? To move the needle on sustainable fashion.
