Fashion industry is highly dependent on natural resources, which are consumed to produce, distribute and to maintain its products in high frequency and disposability, being of high environmental concern. The adoption of Product-Service Systems (PSS) can provide to industry a mechanism to increase factors such as product quality and longevity, while providing alternative consumption models that reduce environmental impact. In this context, the purpose of this paper is to identify the existing models of PSS in the literature on fashion industry, its characteristics, and sustainable potential. Content analysis of 25 articles was performed, which are discussed according to the feasibility of operation and its environmental impact. There were identified 11 types of PSS applied in fashion industry and seven types of green practices observed in the publications examined.
