- Abstract
In light of the industry’s vague understanding of sustainable fashion and the emergence of such problem as greenwashing. On the basis of the collation of industry’s information, 23 experts screen and optimize sustainable fashion evaluation indicators by the Delphi method. The result is an evaluation indicator system comprising 5 tier-1 indicators and 20 tier-2 indicators. The tier-1 indicators cover the entire lifecycle of fashion products and include sustainable design, sustainable procurement, sustainable production, sustainable sale, and sustainable recycling. The tier-2 indicators are determined with reference to the GRI indicator system and the Higg indicator system as well as the opinions of industry experts. Moreover, this paper calculates the weight of various indicators by way of the analytic hierarchy process with a view to quantitatively identifying the relative weight of all indicators. The result indicates that the tier-1 indicator “sustainable production” has the greatest impact on the evaluation of sustainable fashion and that the tier-2 indicators “green transportation means” and “packaging materials re-utilization” have relative greater weight.
