The Flaws of Fashion

- a practical guide for the responsible consumer -

Garbage piles of discarded clothes

Big industries are the main cause for the steady demise of our planet. The fashion industry takes an immense part in this scheme. Countless garments are produced and thrown away on a daily basis wasting valuable resources and the energy of hardworking labourers all over the world. Most of these garments are either of poor quality, faulty in production or simply redundant in quantity. The term for this is generally known as Fast Fashion.

The actual demand for clothing is so saturated that the abundance of unwanted clothes is piling up on landfills in 3rd world countries. The fashion that nobody wants or needs is suffocating poor people who cannot even phathom the insane machinery of 1st world consumerism.

Appreciating fashion is by no means a bad thing. Clothing is a basic need of every human being and everyone deserves to wear clothes that make them feel comfortable and suit them. Fashion is also an essential asset in most cultures and certainly a form of art that is easily approachable due to its omnipresence.

It has become inevitable to face the problems that this inflated industry causes and bring a halt to the greed of big companies, the wasting of resources and the disappointment of consumers.
