What is Topshop made of?
It depends what you buy. Topshop is a mixed bag — some categories are mostly natural, others are mostly plastic. Here's where to shop smart.
According to Fibr's Thread Report (June 2026), 26% of Topshop's 50 analysed products are majority-synthetic, with an average natural-fibre content of 59.9%.
Topshop's jeanss are 98.3% natural fibre, but their dresss are just 57.4%. That's a 41-point gap — where you shop within Topshop matters as much as whether you shop there at all.

Frequently asked questions.
What is Topshop clothing made of?
Based on our analysis of 50 Topshop products, the average garment is 59.9% natural fibre. The most common single fibre is Cotton (in 52% of products). The remaining material is typically synthetic — polyester, polyamide, or acrylic.
Is Topshop cotton?
Sometimes — cotton appears in 52% of the 50 Topshop products we analyzed, but it's usually blended with synthetics. Only 46% of items are nearly all-natural (95%+ natural fibre), so check the composition before assuming a piece is pure cotton.
Is Topshop 100% cotton?
Some pieces are. Of the 50 Topshop products we analyzed, 23 are 100% cotton (or near-pure, 95%+) — that's 46.0% of the catalog. The rest are blends.
How much polyester does Topshop use?
26% of Topshop products are polyester-heavy, meaning polyester makes up 50% or more of the garment. This is below average for fast fashion retailers.
Is Topshop mostly synthetic?
26% of Topshop products are polyester-heavy (50%+ polyester). Average natural fibre content is 59.9%, so the rest of the catalog is mixed.
Does Topshop use natural fabrics?
46% of Topshop products are nearly all-natural (95%+ natural fibre). A decent portion of their range avoids synthetic fibres entirely.
Is Topshop sustainable in terms of fabric?
Fabric composition is one factor in sustainability. With an average of 59.9% natural fibre, Topshop is about average on this measure. Natural fibres generally biodegrade and shed fewer microplastics than synthetics.
