Fast Fall of Fashion - a review on the outlook of fast fashion
Fast Fashion
Article
An article on fast fashion: the impact and lies around the industry, and its greenwashing.
LOG · WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT DOES
Fast fashion is the business of cheap, trend-driven clothing, made quickly and in huge volumes and thrown away almost as fast. This article looks at the industry behind it.
WHY
The class focused on social journalism, and fast fashion was the topic of the week: we all watched the episode of Hasan Minhaj's Patriot Act that aired in November 2019, "The Ugly Truth of Fast Fashion".
WHAT I WORKED ON
I wrote about the impact of the fast fashion industry and the lies around it, and the ugly truth that the only way to put an end to this multi-billion-dollar disease killing our planet might be our own choices, as the brands continue to only greenwash.
WHAT CAME OF IT
At the end of the semester, I got a letter saying I had been recognized by the department, on my professor's recommendation, for my exceptional work.
