You don’t need to wait 6 months for your item to get shipped from China to get the Wish experience. Or maybe it’s a Temu. What the hell is a Temu? Now you can get it at the mall. I didn’t linger in this store because all the clothes looked like they were made from napkins and would last maybe a day. Anyway support real retail people. Get out, get some walking in, try stuff on. It’s not hard it’s fun. #wish #temu #fastfashionsucks #fastfashion https://www.instagram.com/p/CpbhP33LThx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Consumed: On Colonialism, Climate Change, Consumerism, and the Need for Collective Change by Aja Barber ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you recognize the need for massive change in the way we consume and the way the fashion industry contributes to climate change, this is the book - or audiobook- for you. @ajabarber’s friendly voice is a balm to the despair you will inevitably feel while learning about how fast fashion exploits the global south and our consumerist impulses while destroying the planet and funneling money into the pockets of the wealthiest. But that’s just the “learning” half of the book. The “unlearning” half is full of advice on how to shift your desire to acquire and decouple your worth from what you wear. She gives you practical advice on seeing past greenwashing, and encourages you to only wear clothing you feel good in when shopping so everything in the store doesn’t make you feel the urge to purchase your way to a new, better self. She gives tips on how to engage as an activist, including a template letter to send to your local reps or corporate boards. The UK’s Environmental Audit Committee’s 2019 report Fixing Fashion: Clothing, Consumption & Sustainability gives some recommendations we can use: -Greater supply chain transparency - Strengthening the Modern Slavery Act - Funding for an end of life cycle for clothes - a charge of 1 penny per garment on producers could fund this, and result in better clothing collections and sorting - would result in new green jobs - Retailers must take responsibility for the social and environmental cost of clothes. Find some of these suggestions and contact your local reps about them. Personally, I find @goodonyou_app and @sustainableoutfits are great resources for evaluating brands by ethical and environmental standards. #consumerism #fastfashion #ethicalfashion #environmentalist #fashionindustry #garmentindustry #garmentworkers #fastfashionsucks #sustainability #sustainablefashion #sustainableliving #books #bookreview #bookstagram #bookrecommendations #readthis #goodreads #readingchallenge #environmentaljustice #workersrights #pollution #climatechange #climateaction #climatecrisis https://www.instagram.com/p/CiDNog7Oidm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Just pulled over on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere on our road trip back from Sydney to be interviewed over the phone for #ABC radio on all things #sustainable fashion. I LOVE talking about #ethical and sustainable fashion. I could talk about it on the side of the road, at home, in the office, on the bus, in the middle of the street… If you ask, I’ll talk 😂 Conversations create change, and small imperfect steps towards better are better than perfectionism when sustainability is concerned. Australians buy 27KG of fashion a year and send 23KG of fashion to the tip every year, it has to change. #Fastfashion is unsustainable. Polyester is unsustainable. Slow fashion is the way forward. #Circularfashion is a must too. Replay will be available here after midday - https://www.abc.net.au/radio/programs/vic-statewide-mornings/mornings/13830384 Thanks @abcradionational for sharing stories that matter. #thefashionadvocate #sustainablefashion #ecofashion #madeinaustralia #abcradio #businessforgood #positivechange #fashionrevolution #fastfashionsucks #handmadeau #handmadeaustralia #fashionactivism #ecoactivism #slowfashionblogger #sustainablefashionblogger #explorevictoria #roadtripaustralia #roadtrip (at Glenrowan, Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcRZwZyv8U7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Poor air quality and Pollution, flooding, fires, here v in Australia we have seen all these things in the post few years, worse than any of us has ever seen. The climate is already damaged. We need to do what we can you prevent more harm. In our everyday lives we make choices that affect not just us, but the entire planet. From the car you drive to the food you eat. These choices seem obvious in helping the climate crisis. But what about the clothes you wear? Fast fashion is one of the biggest contributors to climate change. Yet we don't think about the climate when we look at our wardrobes. Let's do what we can at home to make a difference by choosing slowly fashion, second hand, and sustainable materials. Our choices affect the entire world. #climatechange #climate #climateaction #climateemergency #fastfashionsucks #fastfashiondetox #fastfashionrebellion #fastfashionkills #fastfashionfacts #fastfashiontakedown #slowfashionmovement #slowfashionstyle #slowfashion #slowfashioncommunity #slowfashionchallenge #choices #choicesmatter #choose #choosewisely #environment #saveourplanet #saveouroceans #saveourearth #stopbuyingfastfashion #saynotofastfashion (at Ngunnawal Country) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cbh-nYPvoYy/?utm_medium=tumblr

Fast Fashion Needs to End!! Just to give you a feel for how much waste the fast Fashion industry produces here is my story. When I worked in the fast Fashion industry. I used to design around 200 pieces a month trying to keep up with new trends. This would then be sampled; So Imagine 200 odd individual garments come through into the office. That’s more than you probably buy each month! From that about 30 of these pieces would be put through to production. Buyers would usually book quantities of around 500-1000 pieces depending on the type of garment. SOOO.. That’s already between 15,000 and 30,000 pieces of clothing out in the world created just from my input. And to think there are at least 40-50 designers at my company alone. You are already starting to see the numbers. Don’t believe me?the World Economic Forum identified fashion, and its supply chain, as the planet’s third largest polluter (after food and construction), releasing 5% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. This is why I started Red Röze! To create timeless pieces that are either up-cycled, or in small quantities that minimalize the impact on the planet. Fashion will never be completely sustainable unless we start going out the house naked but we can start thinking about what we are purchasing! #buyconsidered #shopsmall #alternativefashion #shopindependent #shopvintage #shopupcycled #shopsustainable #fuckfastfashion #fastfashionsucks https://www.instagram.com/p/CaAkbqoriYR/?utm_medium=tumblr

Part III of #MyStory re @lovedeshscout British ethical #luxury brand, which I run with @amberlovedesh my beautiful teenage daughter. Since she was 8. After we visited Bangladesh in 2008. And later discovered horror of #RanaPlaza factory collapse when 1.136 garment workers (mostly women) died in Bangladesh. Modern day slavery needs to stop. And so I created a solution. Times were so hard. So many against us. Trying to take us down. And hurt us. No more. Coming soon #Lovedesh10+ Files - all the behind the scenes good, bad and ugly. Pls share, support or connect. ❤️ @lovedeshscout is 10 years + in the making. What a crazy, mad, bad, glad, rad and scary ride. #lifechange #quitratrace #startup #ethicalinvesting #ethicalinfluencers #Fastfashion #sustainablefashion #ethicalfashion #sustainability #fashionstyle #ethicallysourced #circularfashion #circulareconomy #moderndayslavery #fastfashionsucks #sustainablestyle https://www.instagram.com/p/CKDDE6alO9f/?igshid=b8dhhvh6lz63

This time last year I was in Hong Kong, thanx to @hktdcfashionhk. 🇭🇰 The fascinating thing I learnt was that, most suppliers from Asia no longer required minimums and were catering to smaller businesses. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS? Fuck fast fashion, that’s what. People are waking up and realising the unconsciousness behind excessiveness. I am so excited to witness this change in the fashion industry. I want I be part of this SLOW FASHION change. 👁 Will you be woke with me? 📸 @shujaofficial #fashion #hongkong #asia #business #streetwear #streetstyle #streetphotography #streetart #streetwearfashion #slowfashion #sustainablefashion #fastfashion #fastfashionsucks #love (at Hong Kong) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCflCNzpntx/?igshid=ycsitoigfayz
