Abstract The textile industry has long been a cornerstone of the global economy, but its environmental impact come under scrutiny, particularly with rise fast fashion driven by rapid population growth and short‐term trends. industry's current linear economy model, which prioritizes constant production disposal, exacerbates footprint. To address these issues, circular (CE) model emerged, emphasizing principles “reduce, reuse, recycle” to extend product life cycles, transform waste into wealth such as recycled yarn, regenerated fibers, biofilms, biodegradable composites, biofuels so on, minimize impact. Implementation CE in aligns UN's sustainable development goals, aims water, resources, energy consumption, accelerate economic growth, promote responsible consumption production. This article explores how transitioning could mitigate damage while influencing growth. Furthermore, internet things (IoT) (Internet things) can be contributed initiatives providing transparent traceability along whole supply chain. review begins examining drawbacks then highlights benefits CE. discussion includes management strategies, special focus on recycling techniques not only end products also across various process sections industry, promoting application fiber. Additionally, it approaches like resale, repurposing, rental. paper addresses from adaptation supported industry‐specific data. shows connection goals (SDGs) effects consumer behavior potential risks associated adopting are crucial for successful implementation. Highlights worsens through wasteful Circular extends life, transforming valuable resources. supports UN SDGs reducing energy, IoT aids ensuring chain textiles. focuses CE's benefits, management.
