France is often held up as the leading example of textile EPR.

And in many ways, it is.
Collection systems exist. Funding has grown.

But the data points to something more structural.

Even as recovery systems expand, the volume of textiles entering the market continues to grow faster than the system can handle.

This isn’t about whether EPR is “working” or not.

It’s about what it was designed to do and what it wasn’t.

We keep being told we can solve textile waste by managing it better.

But when the volume keeps growing, the problem doesn’t go away. It just gets moved.

That’s the gap EPR doesn’t address.

Not all fashion systems are created equally, and that distinction often gets lost.

I've been exploring this more through recent research, particularly in relation to textile waste and policy responses like EPR.

More to come over the next few weeks.

A quick personal + professional update as we head into the holidays 🤍

I’ve been a little quieter on here over the past few months, but not idle!
I wrapped up my first semester of my Master’s program, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. Having access to new research, journals, data, and expertise has enhanced how I think about inequities in the fashion industry. This learning feeds directly into my work at Global Measure Inc., particularly around measurement, transparency, and what’s realistic for small brands.

I’m planning to be more present here again, especially as interest in sustainable fashion continues to evolve.

In the weeks ahead, I’ll be sharing thoughts on:
– Wellbeing in fashion (BoF’s 2025 State of Fashion report)
– Canada’s Federal Plastics Registry (new reporting requirements likely around 2027)
– Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), as I wrap up this case study (for now)

More soon. For now, wishing you a safe, healthy, and restorative holiday season ✨
