Thus, it becomes relevant to explore sustainable fashion business models. In this context, the main goal of this article is to identify new existent models and the concepts that underlie them. The method used was the exploratory research, through case analysis, to stimulate the understanding of the theme. The results embrace coworking spaces, which are identified by the concepts they involve and how a new business model can contribute to a more sustainable fashion system.
