Towobola first started research for the book in 2020, having previously studied chemistry and fashion design before moving to practical climate science at Harvard University.
“Sustainable Fashion Vocabulary” CourtesyTowobola claimed that there is so much noise around sustainability that the most important information is drowned out.
Towobola used a University of the Arts London postgraduate to test how this book can be integrated into a curriculum.
Julia Redman, a fashion business lecturer at the London College of Fashion, said: “It’s a brilliant resource for me in teaching.
“If everyone in sustainability had foundational knowledge of these particular terms, we would actually make a lot of progress in the fashion industry,” said Towobola.
