The British menswear designer, Patrick Grant asks how fashion can be made sustainably.

The British menswear designer, Patrick Grant asks what needs to be done to make the fashion industry more sustainable.

Fashion is a hugely polluting industry and is under enormous pressure to become more sustainable. From the way cotton is grown, to the use of synthetic materials and the conditions in factories where our clothes are made  - these are all challenges facing the sector.  In this programme Patrick Grant,  the British menswear designer, factory owner and judge on the Great British Sewing Bee, asks how the fashion industry should respond and what we, as consumers, should be doing too.

Producer Caroline Bayley
