The fashion industry has long exploited animals for their materials, whether fur, leather, silk, wool or feathers - so how can we find other ways of working with, or without, animals in the production of clothing? This volume in the Fashion in Action series of short books, which champion change on global issues in fashion, introduces and challenges our problematic reliance on animal products in fashion, calling for more caring practices that work towards post-animal fashion.

Simona Segre-Reinach argues that fashion, with its far-reaching influence and power to communicate, can lead other industries toward genuinely inclusive sustainability. Divided into three sections, the book first looks at the fashion system's entrenched use of animal-based materials in garment production. Section two explores pathways to kinder, next-generation materials that break away from animal exploitation. The final section advocates for a complete reimagining of fashion through a lens of empathy and respect for all beings.

Featuring practices and ideas from around the globe and with views from philosophers, animal rights activists, scientists and artists intersecting with designers, stylists, companies and consumers, this book inspires a shift towards a sustainable future that respects life in all its forms.
