All the Sustainable Fashion Acronyms to Know
Many executives argue the myriad of acronyms in sustainable fashion complicates the overarching mission. This guide hopes to explain common jargon and abbreviations.

We have recently become aware of unauthorized activities in which individuals are falsely using the name of the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC) to offer opportunities related to clothing resale and job-related training.
These activities are in no way associated with or endorsed by the SAC.
We understand that these unauthorized activities may have caused confusion and inconvenience to a number of individuals, and we deeply regret any misunderstanding.
For any individual who has been affected by this, we strongly advise caution and recommend reporting any such offers or solicitations to the local authorities.
We are committed to ensuring the SAC name and reputation remain untarnished and will take all necessary measures to prevent further incidents of this nature.
For inquiries related to this matter, please contact us.
