'In this episode of The Buzz, we take a look at the dark side of fashion – fast fashion. We speak to Dr Patsy Perry and Dr Amy Benstead, (both pictured below) both lecturers on the Fashion Business and Technology course at the Department of Materials. You can find out more about their work, and about the environmental cost of fast fashion, in this post for FSE Hub. We also speak to Rachel Cox, a graduate of the Fashion Buying and Merchandising course. Learn more about this course. Finally, below are some images showing Manchester’s past as a global leader in textile manufacture and trade. Asia House is a former packing warehouse, while the Royal Exchange was once Manchester’s main trading hall.'
