For nearly a century, the fashion industry has had a strong focus on the use of plastics. Sickly dependent, 65% of clothing is made of synthetic fibers.

"The report pointed out that with the increase in the proportion of fashion purchases online, the overall reduction of hanger waste, including plastic hangers.
