What would you say if I told you that in a single year the European Union needed a land mass the size of Britain to produce the fashion that it consumes.

This is the bit that most breaks my heart. The earthshaking theft of human time and potential by the fashion industry.

Part Two!

2.2 billion people don’t have access to safe drinking water yet in one year EU fashion consumption uses 5.45 billion cubic meters of freshwater.

Likewise thousands of kilotons of fossil ​​fuels is going into fashion consumption every year:

Christmas is a time of choices. Do you want to fuel fast fashion… or fight it?

Let's dismantle exploitation and build an industry where workers are respected and paid fairly.

Support @labourlabel.bsky.social's Urgent Appeals campaign!

I donated £20 today and it magically turned into £45 through the power of the Big Give + gift aid.

£45 going towards garment worker solidarity campaigns for just £20 felt like a very positive result!

We spend a lot of time trying to reduce things in the fast fashion industry. But if you could choose to DOUBLE something what would it be?
From the 2nd - 9th December we're raising money for our Urgent Appeals and anything you donate will be DOUBLED!

This month in Bangladesh there has been both a historic worker victory, and a devastating factory fire that killed seventeen people. Together these events reveal a seismic crossroads for Bangladesh's garment workers.

London Fashion Week Orcas flip yachts.

Sinking these symbols of obscene greed and reclaiming their home as a billionaire-free zone. We want this in fashion: Redistribute wealth and power into the hands of the millions of people who make our clothes.

👗The top 10 fast fashion brands raked in $13.9 billion in profit in 2024 - while paying the workers who make their clothes poverty wages.

We're at London Fashion Week today to say: tax extreme wealth. Pay living wages now.

A lo largo del libro, @tansyhoskins.org recurre a Karl Marx para explicar cómo el capitalismo convierte la moda en mercancía, símbolo y deseo, pero también en instrumento de explotación. Así, la pregunta que atraviesa toda la obra es: ¿y si la moda pudiera existir sin capitalismo?
