06/10/2023 – World Cotton Day

Celebrating the importance of cotton

Cotton is the most important natural fibre in the fashion and textile industry. The cultivation of cotton offers a subsistence, if not a basis of life, for countless people around the world. To highlight this, the United Nations launched World Cotton Day in 2021, a feast day that has since taken place annually on October 7th, 2023. Cotton production comes into focus all over the world on this day.
