About the awards

The Drapers Conscious Fashion Awards recognized the progress that the industry had made in reducing its impact on the environment and improving working conditions for people throughout the supply chain.

Launched as Drapers Sustainable Fashion Awards in 2020, the evolution of this market-leading program reflected how far fashion retail had come in embedding sustainability in all aspects of operations, making it a non-negotiable.

The agenda-setting awards program was underpinned by the United Nations-backed Sustainable Development Goals and judged by an independent panel of experts. This pioneering initiative shone a spotlight on best practices within the industry, enabling the sector to collaborate and learn how to create lasting change.
