From weaving, knitting, dyeing, finishing, and printing through to constructing, shipping, retailing, owning, and washing, water is critical to fashion. Fashioning the Future, a competition that aims to challenge the fashion industry's wasteful attitude - particularly towards water - is held by the Centre for Sustainable Fashion at the London College of Fashion. The awards are being held on Wednesday 25 November.
