Individuals who have signed onto the:
Total ethics fashion manifesto
-
Eirinn Hayhow
British Fashion Council designer
“The manifesto perfectly brings together all the areas of environmental and social injustices that need addressing for the future wellbeing of our planet and generations to come.
From a must read book, for everyone.” -
Bel Jacobs
Fashion Act Now co-founder, Islington Climate Centre founder, activist, writer and former Metro style editor
“I support the total ethics manifesto because it prioritises the wellbeing of all species. It still leaves me aghast that animals used for fashion have so little protection in law or culture, opening the door to horrific, undocumented abuses. For too long, we have omitted our fellow animals fro mspaces that seek to address inequity in the fashion system and beyond. The manifesto is one of the boldest, more important efforts to address that.”
-
Shruti Singh
Country Head, Fashion Revolution India
“The total ethics fashion manifesto invites us to question the threads of our choices. It's not only about wearing clothes, but also wearing responsibility and empathy for all living beings and the planet we share.” -
Professor Lesley Hughes
Councillor at Climate Council of Australia, Pro Vice-Chancellor at Macquarie University
“The fast fashion industry contributes a significant percentage of global greenhouse gas emissions, as well as having significant negative impacts on water quality, land degradation and human rights. This needs to change, and the total ethics manifesto represents a pathway to that change.”
-
Megan Doyle
Journalist with by-lines in the Business of Fashion, Vogue Business, and more.
“Without a holistic approach to sustainability that encompasses and protects nature in all its forms, the term is meaningless. The fashion industry causes immense harm to people, the planet and animals all for the sake of clothing that often ends up in landfills within a few months.
The system urgently needs reimagining to regenerate rather than destroy and to better serve its stakeholders. The Total Ethics Fashion Manifesto reminds us that any efforts to improve the industry must centre nature, which animals and people are part of too.” -
Professor Edward Maibach
George Mason University Professor, US National Academy of Medicine member, American Association for the Advancement of Science fellow
“We have an obligation--to our children, grandchildren, and future generations--to repair what we've broken. The Total Ethics Manifesto is an excellent step in that direction.”
-
Dr Meg Good
Lawyer and lecturer
“We need to start planting the seeds now for a long overdue transition to a total ethics fashion system. CFJ is a groundbreaking and crucial change agent in this space, and it is my honour to wholeheartedly support their mission.”
-
Simona Segre-Reinach
University of Bologna lecturer, author and cultural anthropologist
“A most needed direction in the fashion system, CFJ’s work is an essential tool for my research and teaching.” -
Sara Arnold
Co-founder of Fashion Act Now and lecturer
“Ethics must be centred around recognising all sentient beings as individuals and acting with respect and compassion for all individuals - human and non-human.”
-
Isaias Hernandez
QueerBrownVegan founder, environmental educator
“As an environmentalist that is Vegan, I believe that choosing to advocate for a just, ethical system means valuing the liberation of human and non-human animals. Total liberation is for all living and non-living species in the world.”
-
Isobella Wolfe
Writer and head of content at Good On You
“The total ethics fashion manifesto perfectly represents the north star fashion and other industries should look to if humanity, the planet, and the precious animals we share it with are going to get through these next decades not just alive, but thriving.
Indeed, we must leave complacency behind and move boldly forward in action with a singular mission: ensuring there is a future at all.”
-
Professor Matthew Hayek
Scientist, New York University
“The fashion industry continues to struggle in reducing its greenhouse gas emissions and waste, and providing higher quality jobs and wages.”
-
Alexi Lubomirski
Fashion photographer, author
“In what manner shall we continue to enjoy fashion as a form of self-expression, knowing that certain articles of clothing have arrived on our body, via a journey fraught with cruelty, injustice and environmental destruction? Surely, we should use the knowledge available to us, in order to make more compassionate choices, rather than turning an indifferent eye to the deafening cries of the industry’s watchdogs, so that we can wear a so-called badge of ‘luxury’. “ -
Dr Mark Benecke
Forensic biologist
“Resources run out.”
-
Georgie Purcell MP
Australian politician, Member of the Victorian Legislative Council
“I endorse the total ethics fashion manifesto because we cannot accept a fashion industry built on cruelty and destruction. As a politician, I am committed to acting in alignment with the manifesto, as no individual should be exploited for profit.” -
Puja Mj
Slow Fashion Movement board member and Remake community organiser
“Total ethics fashion is a mandate that our present fashion system needs, allowing it to be inclusive of caring for not only planet and people but also our fellow animal-kind. Clothes we wear is our second skin and it carries energy. I would never want to wear anything that shed blood of any living organism which walked this earth, breathed the air and lived under the sky. Anything that's made of animal-derived material or exploited the worker who stake their life while making the garment or is used of plastic, while exploiting natural resources holds the power to destroy all the good that fashion can do. We need a total ethics fashion system.”
-
Jonathan Balcombe
Ethologist, educator and author
“Fashion should never be at the expense of animals.”
-
Dr Francesco Mazzarella
Senior lecturer in Fashion and Design for Social Change, London College of Fashion
“Ethics of care and respect are at the core for a shift from an extractive fashion system towards a regenerative one. We need visions and actions, local as well as global, here and now, and with a resilient future in mind.”
-
Ellie Sursara
Wildlife scientist, senior biology teacher and researcher
“I support Collective Fashion Justice because they are progressing the way we value clothes and fashion sustainability through the lens of exploited people and exploited animals.”
-
Noa Ben Moshe
Style with a Smile founder
“I am honored to endorse the Total Ethics Fashion Manifesto, striking at the very heart of our mission, one that recognizes the profound impact fashion has on animals, humans, and the planet.
As we forge a new path to the future, the fashion industry must confront its ethics, not merely as an industry but as a reflection of our very society. Let us boldly ask: If anything or anyone is experiencing harm or neglect, can we honestly and unequivocally label it as ethical or sustainable?” -
Ruth MacGlip
Actions Speak Louder campaigner, formerly Fashion Revolution
“Because there is no sustainable fashion without total system change.” -
-
Rebecca Cappelli
Filmmaker, director of SLAY
“Good fashion respects planet, people and animals, it does not leave anyone behind and does not seek shallow beauty at the expense of either.”
