Once a global textile powerhouse, Taiwan is now largely missing from fashion labels—but its story is far from over. In this episode, we trace the rise and decline of Taiwan’s garment industry and examine how fast fashion has reshaped global carbon emissions. With over 100 billion items of clothing produced annually, the environmental impact is staggering. We explore Taiwan’s potential role in a more circular, ethical fashion system with voices from both local innovators and international advocates like Sophia Yang of Threading Change. It’s a journey through fabric, factories, and the future of what we wear—and what it costs.
