The Circular Fashion Ecosystem Project (CFE) is the Institute of Positive Fashion’s (IPF) flagship programme from the British Fashion Council (BFC). Phase 1 of the CFE Project: A Blueprint for the Future, published in September 2021, serves as an actions-oriented approach for industry transformation with innovation, research, jobs & skills, education, and community at its heart. It sets out a framework of 10 Action Areas and 30 Recommendations to achieve three target outcomes for a future circular fashion ecosystem in the UK. This report presents findings from the foundational stage of Phase 2 of the CFE Project: Developing the Roadmap for Change. Based on research conducted between January – April 2022, insights into stakeholder advances and challenges to reach a circular fashion ecosystem are presented. Specifically, engagement within the framework of 10 Action Areas and 30 Recommendations from Phase 1. By collating these advances and challenges, the complexity, ease, potential for collaboration and opportunity to leverage existing initiatives to transition to a circular fashion ecosystem can be understood. Insights were gained from the following stakeholder groups: Academia, Brands, Collectors, Designers, Digital Innovators, Institutions / Industry Bodies / 3rd sector, Manufacturers, Reprocessors, and Retailers.
