ClearThe Impact of Fast Fashion on Marine Plastic Pollution
This paper reviews the fast fashion industry's contribution to waterway pollution, explaining that cheap synthetic clothing sheds microplastic fibers during production and washing, and that the industry's rapid growth — especially in Asia — is making this a significant global pollution source. The authors propose manufacturing regulations and consumer behavior change as solutions to reduce the volume of synthetic microfibers entering waterways.
Appalling or Advantageous? Exploring the Impacts of Fast Fashion From Environmental, Social, and Economic Perspectives

Environmental Pollution by the Fast Fashion: Current Status and Prospects
This review examines the environmental footprint of fast fashion — mass clothing production that generates enormous textile waste, synthetic fiber shedding, and water pollution. It is relevant to microplastics because synthetic garment washing is one of the largest sources of microfiber pollution entering waterways, though the paper focuses on industry-level sustainability responses rather than quantifying microplastic release specifically.
The Environmental Impacts of Fast Fashion on Water Quality: A Systematic Review
This systematic review documents how fast fashion contributes to water pollution, including the release of synthetic microfibers — a major source of microplastic contamination. The fashion industry produces about 20% of global wastewater, and these microfibers can end up in drinking water and food sources.
Unveiling the microplastic crisis: Insights into Bangladesh's aquatic ecosystems - origins, impact, and solutions
This review examines the growing microplastic crisis in Bangladesh's rivers, estuaries, and coastal waters, finding that the country's rapid urbanization and limited waste management have led to widespread contamination. Microplastics were documented in water, sediment, and fish across multiple Bangladeshi water systems. Since over 160 million people in Bangladesh depend on these water resources for drinking, farming, and fishing, the contamination poses a significant public health concern.
SUSTAINABLE FASHION INDUSTRY: Why do we need a switch towards conscious consumption?
This thesis examines the fashion industry's environmental and social harms, including its significant contribution to microplastic pollution through synthetic textile washing, and argues for a shift toward more conscious consumer behavior. Fast fashion is one of the largest sources of synthetic microfibers entering waterways globally.
Fibras Sintéticas como um tipo de microplástico: caminhos para o setor têxtil atuar no combate ao lixo no mar
This Brazilian doctoral thesis examines synthetic fiber release from textile laundering as a major source of microplastic pollution in waterways and the ocean.

Sustainability of the Fashion Industry: An Examination of the US Fashion Industry's Impact on Water Quality
Researchers examined the impact of the US fashion industry on water quality, conducting a review of the literature on garment production-related water pollution while noting that the US has been underrepresented in global studies that typically focus on countries with large manufacturing sectors. The study found that domestic fashion industry activities contribute measurably to water quality degradation, including through microfiber and chemical discharge.
The impact of fast fashion on the environment and climate change
This paper examines how fast fashion's rapid production cycles and disposable consumer culture contribute to growing environmental impacts including carbon emissions, water pollution, and textile waste. The disposal of fast fashion clothing releases synthetic microfibers and eventually contributes to microplastic pollution in soils and waterways.
Estrategias sostenibles para el aprovechamiento de textiles provenientes de la moda rápida (fast fashion)
This study reviews sustainable strategies for managing textile waste from fast fashion — the second most polluting manufacturing industry globally, responsible for 20% of wastewater and 10% of carbon emissions. The research identifies eco-sustainable approaches aligned with UN Sustainable Development Goals that could help circular economy efforts reduce fast fashion's environmental footprint.
Fast Fashion and Sustainability Challenges: A Critical Review with Insights from Cyprus
This review examined the environmental impacts of fast fashion, focusing on water and chemical pollution, carbon emissions, and microfiber release, with a case study perspective on Cyprus. The authors argued that fast fashion's business model is fundamentally incompatible with environmental sustainability goals.
Plastic pollution in Bangladesh: A review on current status emphasizing the impacts on environment and public health
