Sign up for the FT’s Fashion Matters newsletter

I’m happy to report that Fashion Matters, the first FT newsletter dedicated to the $2.5tn fashion industry, has launched this week. You can read the first issue here.

Each Thursday, we’ll be breaking down the big stories in style, from the fallout of Adidas’s break-up with Kanye West to the wardrobing tactics of new Downing Street resident Akshata Murthy — hopefully with your input.

Fashion is growing ever more enmeshed in the worlds of pop culture, politics and business, and is under increasing scrutiny from environmental activists and governments. All this makes it a great time to dive deeper into its practices.

If this sounds like something you might be interested in, and you are an FT subscriber, you can sign up here. Or to take out an FT subscription, click here.

I hope you enjoy the newsletter.
