Sustainable Fashion Vocabulary is the essential encyclopaedia guide for anyone who wants sustainability to finally make sense. The industry is full of mixed messages, evolving terminology and greenwashing — making it hard to know what’s real and what matters. Sustainable Fashion Encyclopaedia solves that problem by organising sustainability into four simple languages using the PULI Framework:
P — Planetary Boundaries: Is this about climate, water, biodiversity or chemistry?
U — United Nations SDGs: Is this about people, labour, equality or community wellbeing?
L — Law & Policy: Is this about regulation, reporting, due diligence or green claims?
I — Industry: Is this about materials, design, production or supply chains?
With 1,000 clearly explained terms, practical frameworks, expert insights and a 1000+ sustainable textile directory, this book helps you filter out sustainability noise, decode claims, and understand exactly what problem a term or announcement is trying to solve.
If sustainability feels overwhelming, this book gives you the clarity, structure and confidence the industry has been missing.
Whether you work in design, production, policy, marketing, or education — whether you run a label or lead a team at a company or you’re a student — this sustainable fashion encyclopaedia is built for you.
