Garments made with stretch fibers bring a variety of benefits to consumers, such as enhanced comfort, style, and fit.  However, they can also pose unique challenges for brands, retailers and their value chains working to advance a circular business model.  This paper outlines those challenges and provides an update on both short and longer-term solutions, including advances in recycling technologies, fiber technologies, and fiber selection. Specifically, the paper examines solutions for garments that contain elastane and/or elastomultiester.  Finally, it proposes an “eco-system” of solutions that are needed to bring these technologies to broad based commercialization.
