‼️Fast fashion is one of the largest contributors to the environmental crisis. Dictated by mega corporations functioning on exploitative labor relations and defined by trends of overproduction and over-consumption, fast fashion creates unimaginable amounts of textile waste and facilitates a lack of self-sufficiency in its consumer base. To combat this, we present you with our 🌱Slow Fashion Week👖! During Slow Fashion Week, we aim to challenge the trends of over-consumption and overproduction that have become commonplace in our lives, learn more about the impact of fast fashion on the planet and how we can battle this effect both as consumers and producers, and, of course, learn more about how we can become self-sufficient in our wardrobes! Join us in a series of lectures, talks, screenings and workshops to go against the choke-hold that exploitative and environmentally destructive fast fashion mega-corporations have on the sector!
