'Say no to fast fashion once and for all. The fast fashion industry continues to be a top polluting industry (in water use, emissions and textile waste) that thrives off of marginalized POC garment workers (mostly women). The longer we as a collective shop under the mindset of constant consumption, we\'ll never be able to have an ethical or sustainable fashion industry.

We need to stop overconsumption 12:02 How Zara started fast fashion with their supply chain and business model 13:36 Final thoughts 14:07 Outfit details Those in the room with the best style are the ones who are the most conscious about the impact their shopping habits and buying decisions have, on those who aren\'t in the room. It\'s time to end fast fashion for real. That means questioning why you want to shop when you\'re in the mood. It means calling out your favourite influencers when they have brand deals (and do hauls or lookbooks) constantly with brands like Zara, Aritzia, Boohoo, really any brand thats pushing for constant consumption. We can\'t have racial equity or a sustainable (and ethical) fashion industry when a majority of consumers continue to shop all the time. If you really care about sustainability, women\'s rights, racial justice, or environmental justice, you need to help but an end to fast fashion. It\'s all intersectional.
