Summary

Circular economy (CE) principles have been employed by different industry sectors in recent years, including fashion and textiles. This article discusses CE in the apparel, fashion, and textiles industry sectors from the social media perspective. We inspire our discussion from data retrieved from companies' LinkedIn profiles containing the “circular economy” term. This involved all 471 companies worldwide, most located in the UK, followed by the USA and Italy. Most of these companies have been established during the last five years. The most important re-strategies and activities reported involve recycling, repairing, reusing, regenerating, renting, and reselling. Our approach can also be applied in the future to monitor the sector's progress.
