Abstract

The textile industry's pollution is a growing environmental concern. This study promotes sustainable
fashion awareness through clothing recycling. By addressing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, we aim
to advance eco-friendly fashion. This research can benefit future students and interested individuals. Our methodology
included a questionnaire with 105 respondents. Results revealed high support for clothing recycling. The study emphasizes textile waste's environmental consequences, such as water and energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and
ecosystem pollution. While most people are environmentally concerned, apathy still poses a threat to the environment.
