Abstract

This paper focuses on the linkages between the circular economic paradigms and high-end apparel buying in the Indian context. A SLR approach, Journal and Country specific analysis along with the theme-based analysis using NVivo was followed to tabulate the major insights. A list of 200 papers were initially scrutinized and thereafter around 180 papers were reviewed and selected based on the abstract, keywords and the main body mapping with the premise of this study for a span of 15 years finally after removing the outliers, 150 papers were selected for the final review. This study delves into the circular economy's role in sustainable luxury apparel. By analyzing closed-loop systems, recycled materials, and eco-friendly practices, we uncover its multi-faceted impact on resource efficiency, ethical sourcing, and consumer behavior. Emerging trends like slow fashion, biodegradable materials, and clean supply chains are reshaping the industry. Notably, India's cultural heritage and focus on sustainability position it as a potential leader in sustainable fashion. Future research should explore consumer preferences, technological advancements, and policy frameworks to further drive sustainable luxury.
