The fast fashion industry has grown exponentially due to its affordability and speed, but it comes at a cost. The industry is built on exploiting the environment and people, particularly in developing countries, leading to environmental degradation, habitat destruction, and poverty. The industry is also built on unsustainable labor practices, including low wages, long working hours, and poor working conditions. To make informed choices, consumers can adopt a more mindful approach to fashion, purchase fewer high-quality items, and consider the cost-per-wear, rental, and repair options. Experts in this field include Kate Fletcher, Patsy Perry, and Helen Goworek.
