Thank you for this post. I understand a lot of the issues that fast fashion brings but luxury fashion is not without major issues as well. Just thinking about Loro Piana and the unpaid workers in Bolivia makes me so mad because this is a brand that charges thousands for a dollars for a single piece of clothing, you would think that labor was not issue. Also, the prices of clothes has gotten so ridiculous that, in some instances, fast fashion becomes a real alternative. Not everyone can afford The Row, that’s for sure, but even entry level luxury brands and some mid range brands are becoming increasingly unaffordable for more and more people. So as much as I disagree with fast fashion, let’s be real, for a large number of people it is the only option and there’s nothing wrong with not being affluent and actually enjoying fashion.
