Abstract
With fashion retailers now faced with the simultaneous challenges of achieving supply chain agility and improving sustainability, the aim of this research was to review the literature on agile fashion supply chains and fashion supply chain sustainability in order to better understand how both challenges may be tackled simultaneously. A conceptual model, following a 3- dimensional concurrent engineering logic is presented which proposes that there are multiple enablers of fashion supply chain agility and sustainability that complement each other at the supply chain design, product design and process design levels. It is anticipated that this research will provide fashion retailers with a combined starting point/focus for developing supply chain strategy that is capable of working towards achieving agility and sustainability.
