This survey aims to examine the existing and potential factors that can increase the usage of sustainable clothing. Currently, many corporations struggle to properly assess customers’ perceptions of sustainable fashion (Wang et al., 2019). There are some concerns regarding the usage of eco-friendly materials among consumers, although companies are not yet ready to switch to them completely (Henninger et al., 2016). Moreover, the respondents’ intentions imply that people are willing to change to a more sustainable type of clothing, yet many are not willing to pay more for it.

There are proper ways to reduce pollution from the fashion industry. For example, second-hand stores and other ways to prolong clothing usage prove to be efficient. However, not many people are currently considering these options, indicating that there is a lack of motivation (McNeill & Venter, 2019). The fashion culture was created on the idea of continuous consumption, which relied heavily on trends (McNeill & Venter, 2019). However, the survey indicates that not many people closely follow them, which opens up the possibility for companies to explore old designs. Vintage clothing is one of the most viable ways to reduce pollution from the fashion industry.
