Every modern and responsible company must reduce its environmental impact, making it essential to update practices and reconsider production methods. For instance, producing 100,000 “classic” watch cases has an environmental impact equivalent to the annual consumption of 23 Europeans citizens. At FPM, we went through the process of rethinking our “classic” watch case by looking at it through the lens of eco-design, revealing ways to create exceptional packaging for minimal impact. Let us tell you all about it 👇 #luxurypack #packaging #expertise #fpm

Why are scarves so beloved in France? • 𝗦𝗶𝗹𝗸 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲: France has a long-standing affair with silk. From the opulent courts of Versailles to the bustling streets of Paris, silk scarves have adorned necks, heads, and handbags for centuries.. • 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗰 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹: Scarves serve as versatile companions: they shield against chilly breezes, elevate an outfit, and add that je ne sais quoi. Whether draped loosely or tied with finesse, scarves are a statement of elegance. And they are so pratical to remove and put in your bag! • 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Scarves are more than mere accessories; they’re canvases for creativity. French designers infuse scarves with art, history, and symbolism. Each motif tells a story—a whisper of romance, a nod to nature, or a tribute to iconic landmarks or artists. • 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗲𝘅 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗙𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗿: Stroll along the Seine, and you’ll witness Parisians effortlessly donning scarves. It’s an art passed down through generations. They are popular among both men and women and are often seen as a symbol of Parisian sophistication and style. 🌿 Introducing Petrusse 🌿 Leaded by a French woman, for more than 25 years, Petrusse collaborates with prestigious museums and visionary artists. Each scarf becomes a canvas, merging heritage with contemporary art. We especially loves the 𝟭𝟬𝟱 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 which pays homage to the 𝗺𝗮𝗷𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗶𝘀, a monument dedicated to the glory of French art. Direct Link in comments 👇

🔆 Pioneering the Greener Garments Initiative (GGI) 🔆 In 2022, SOLshare and BESTSELLER joined forces to form GGI, Bangladesh’s first Energy Service Company (ESCO) co-created by a climate-tech pioneer and a global fashion brand. We are on a mission to make the garment industry more sustainable—one rooftop at a time. Through solar energy solutions on Commercial & Industrial (C&I) rooftops, we’re helping reduce #Scope3 GHG emissions and green the fashion supply chain. 🚀 Our 1.57 MWp milestone project with Palmal Group of Industries Ltd., completed earlier this year, is a prime example of a thriving partnership, that’s scaling rapidly and setting new benchmarks for sustainable energy solutions. This collaboration with Palmal Group—one of the key offtakers—demonstrates the tangible progress towards BESTSELLER’s 2030 goal of reducing Scope 3 emissions by 30%. 🌍 Together, we are not just generating energy—we're powering climate action and shaping the future of sustainable fashion in Bangladesh. 👇 See for yourself in the video below: https://lnkd.in/gQq47C69

Slow fashion 🌿 advocates for a more thoughtful and sustainable approach to clothing production and consumption, while fast fashion 🗑 focuses on quick turnover of inexpensive, trend-driven clothing. Slow fashion and fast fashion are two contrasting approaches to the fashion industry. Let's take a deep dive and compare the two : Slow fashion : ✅ Focuses on quality over quantity. ✅ Emphasises sustainability & ethical production practices. ✅ Promotes timeless, durable pieces that are made to last. ✅ Encourages mindful consumption & buying fewer, higher-quality items. ✅ Supports fair labor practices & transparency in the supply chain. ✅ Aims to reduce waste & promote a more sustainable fashion industry. Fast fashion : ❌ Emphasises quick production & turnover of trendy clothing items. ❌ Prioritises low prices & frequent new arrivals to drive sales. ❌ Often relies on cheap labor & unsustainable production methods. ❌ Leads to waste and environmental impact due to rapid turnover of clothing. ❌ Encourages impulse buying and disposable fashion trends. ❌ Leads to poor working conditions & exploitation of workers. It is about time we do what is best for the planet 🌏 and people. 👫 Comment below to let us know your thoughts on how would you want brands to evolve & contribute towards a sustainable fashion industry. #shinaraa #sustainablefashion #organicfabrics #slowfashion

In an era where sustainability is crucial, embracing sustainable fashion can significantly impact the environment and promote ethical practices. Here are ten practical tips to help you make more eco-friendly fashion choices : 1 - Buy Less, Choose Better: Prioritize high-quality clothing that lasts longer, reducing the need to frequently update your wardrobe. 2 - Choose Eco-Friendly Materials: Opt for durable materials like organic cotton, linen, hemp, Tencel, and bamboo, which require fewer natural resources and chemicals to produce. 3 - Support Local Brands: Purchase from local designers and artisans to reduce the carbon footprint from transportation and encourage ethical production practices. 4 - Avoid Fast Fashion: Prefer brands committed to ethical and ecological standards to limit the environmental and social impact of your purchases. 5 - Buy Second-Hand Clothing: Explore thrift stores, vintage shops, and online platforms to extend the life of clothes and reduce textile waste. 6 - Adopt Minimalism: Build a capsule wardrobe with versatile and timeless pieces, minimizing the number of clothes you own and reducing waste. 7 - Take Care of Your Clothes: Follow washing instructions, repair small damages, and store your clothes properly to extend their lifespan. 8 - Recycle and Reuse: Sell your old clothes to online second-hand platforms or second-hand shops, donate them to charities, transform them into new items, or recycle them at textile collection centers to avoid throwing them away. 9 - Research Brand Practices: Look into brands before buying, seeking those transparent about their production practices and committed to reducing their environmental and social impact. 10 - Participate in Circular Fashion: Support clothing take-back initiatives and buy from brands that adopt a circular fashion model, aiming to extend the life of garments through reuse, repair, and recycling cycles.

FAST FASHION EXISTENTIAL THREAT TO FRENCH TEXTILE INDUSTRY Key Takeaways from Fashion Network: 🦦 Fast fashion has been threatening France's textile industry for decades, obliterating jobs and triggering unfair competition, according to a report published on Wednesday by the Les Amis de la Terre France NGO (part of the international Friends of the Earth network), which is calling for “urgent legislative action.” Foreign fast-fashion players began to pose a threat to the French textile industry as early as 1990, as the sector’s most renowned names gradually started to establish themselves in the country, the NGO stated in the report. Spain's Zara set up shop in France in 1990, Sweden's H&M in 1998, and Ireland/UK's Primark in 2013, followed by the disruptive arrival of giant Asian fashion e-tailers like Shein in 2015 and Temu in 2023. 🐼 But the fast-fashion business model, with production relocating to South-east Asia, was operational from as early as the 1980s, and “began to peak with the end of the multi-fibre agreements between 2005 and 2008,” said the NGO. The international trade agreements that established import quotas for textile products in Europe and the USA, to protect local manufacturers from competition from low-wage countries, ended in fact in 2005, leaving the door wide open for Asia-sourced textiles. 🐣 Since 1990, “nearly 300,000 jobs” have been lost in France’s textile industry, according to the NGO, which cited figures based on data from national statistics office INSEE, environmental advisory agency ADEME, and national e-commerce association Fevad. Although “in less than 40 years” the quantity of clothes consumed has doubled, this has not benefited the local industry, noted the NGO, which believes that fast-fashion players create “unfair competition” for the rest of the sector. “In 2023, the business volume of apparel and footwear retailers in France was barely higher than in 2016, while revenue for brands like Zara and Primark recorded rises of 70% and 116% respectively,” said the NGO. #ai #crypto #fashion #blockchain #metaverse #web3 #smartfashion #defi #btc #bitcoin #fashioncoin

🚨 Big News: France Takes on Fast Fashion! 🚨 France made history by passing a bill to limit the rise of cheap, fast fashion products, especially from Chinese brands. 🇫🇷 They're the first country to do this! 🔹 What’s in the Bill: Advertising Ban: Limits on fashion ads. Environmental Taxes: A €5 surcharge on fast fashion items starting next year, going up to €10 by 2030, with a cap of 50% of the product price. Anne-Cecile Violland mentioned Shein as a prime example. Platforms like Shein and Temu have been shaking things up for brands like Zara and H&M with their super flexible supply chains. 💼 What This Means: This new law will impact Chinese brands like Shein and Temu and other big names with suppliers in China, like Primark and Zara. Analysts think the disruption these brands cause to local markets is a big reason for this move. France is setting a new trend towards sustainability in fashion. How do you think this will change the industry? Share your thoughts below! 👇 #FashionIndustry #FastFashion #Sustainability #NewLegislation #RetailChanges #Shein #Temu #Zara #FrenchLaw

French multinational luxury fashion house, Christian Dior Couture, has resumed trademark registration in Russia after announcing the suspension of its operations in the market at the onset of Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the company confirmed in a letter to B4Ukraine. Christian Dior apparently never fully left Russia. According to Russian customs data, the company's shipments of goods to Russia saw a sharp drop immediately following the invasion but never completely stopped and somewhat recovered by the fall of 2022, though not to pre-invasion levels. Although the company has denied providing any product shipments to Russia since March 2022, the latest available customs data for #Dior, from April to May 2024, shows direct shipments worth $24mn from a supplier named Parfums Christian Dior. When further probed by B4Ukraine about the analyzed customs data that clearly shows direct exports into Russia, a representative of Dior stated that such figures “may be the result of unauthorized parallel exportations by third-party resellers.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/erYa6KNy #ExitRussia #StopFundingTheWar

**Olympics 2024: Shopping Duty-Free at Paris CDG Airport** This July, as France prepares to welcome the world for the 2024 Olympic Games, we have conducted a comprehensive comparison of the latest prices for over 10,000 perfume and cosmetics products across various international airports. Our findings reveal in what proportion, Paris CDG Airport is can be cheaper compared to other global airports. The attached infographic illustrates these price comparisons. Notably, airports in Shanghai, New York, and Dubai may apply prices ranging from 0% to 5% higher than those in Paris, on average. Meanwhile, Rio, Sydney, Singapore and Toronto retail between 5% to 10% higher, and Istanbul and Zurich between 10% to 15% higher than Paris. For airports with a higher price difference versus Paris (+20% or more), this can be explained by the local market positioning relative to Europe and the cost of importing or retailing in some locations. All prices are calculated before local promotions. However, it is important to note that Paris prices include an additional 10% discount with the Extime membership, which only requires providing your email address at the cashier desk to obtain membership status. DRP is a Paris based company, we wish all athletes successful games and visitors a wonderful time in France in this summer. #Olympics2024 #DutyFree #ParisCDG #PerfumeAndCosmetics #TravelRetail #PriceComparison
