Introduction to Ethical Fashion
This article will hopefully be thought-provoking for some of you and make you think that buying a piece of clothing is not something simple, but it means so much more. The Industrial Revolution radically changed human life and introduced machines into the workplace. This change has also affected the fashion industry, which is one of the five most destructive industries for the environment and the planet. But what is industry? Industry is the buildings of a company, the production machines, the people who work in it and the work conditions. In order to stay high in the production of a product, the owners forget the above and only look for the profit. So the issue of Ethical Fashion is about such problems in the fashion industry.
When we go to buy clothes, we need to do some important research early. This research is especially important for fast fashion, as it is the fast fashion companies that are causing the biggest issues. To make money, they lower the quality of clothes and this, in turn, leads to people purchasing more and more clothing. However, this results in lower wages in fashion industries and the need for faster rates of work. In addition, these companies are changing trends every month to create more "need" to those who wear the latest styles, which in turn pushes us to buy more and more clothing. So, who assures us of the right working conditions in the clothing-making industry and of the fact that workers earn at least the minimum wage and not less than that? I encourage you to search the internet for websites that deal with ethical fashion to inform you on these issues.
This article is just an introduction to the subject of ethical fashion. Coming soon will be more articles on how the fashion industry is affecting animals, nature, and humans.
