Exhibition: Reboot Fashion

An Exhibition About Moving Towards a Circular Textile Future

Discover how we can embrace a circular textile future through innovative production methods and how you, as an individual, can make a difference!

The fashion industry needs a reset. Clothing and fashion are fun, creative, and a way to communicate, but the global textile and fashion industry poses significant threats to people, the environment, and the climate. Low prices and persuasive advertising have led to overflowing wardrobes. The textile industry demands vast natural resources, causes pollution, and, in many countries, offers poor working conditions. This is a complex problem with no easy solutions. Both companies and consumers need to undergo a profound transformation.

The Reset Fashion exhibition showcases examples of innovative thinking from companies and researchers in the field, along with practical tips on how to care for your wardrobe. The exhibition also highlights lessons from the past and the sustainability mindset that was once second nature to most people.

This new permanent exhibition complements the existing Textile Power and Clothes & Couture exhibitions, which together depict the 20th-century history of fashion, the textile industry, and the development of the textile city of Borås.

Reset Fashion provides insights into the climate and environmental impact of fashion while demonstrating that everyone can take steps to improve the situation.
