    Question 30 is interesting because most people may assume that haute couture is the opposite of "fast fashion" but I don't think expensive or exclusive brands need to be the opposite of it. A more fundamental question might be "is there really a clear borderline between fast-fashion and its "opposite"?" Might some haute couture labels or products have some of the disadvantages which characterize fast fashion?

When did fast-fashion become a thing?

Welcome back, here are three questions I would like to cover today... 1. When did fast-fashion become a thing? 2. How big is the fast-fashion market? 3. Is fast-fashion still a growing industry? 4.

So, people mended it and were taken care of until it was no longer wearable.  Now fast-fo...

Welcome!

 Welcome to my blog.  My name is Hina, and I would like to share with you the reality of the fast-fashion industry.  I have been wearing fast-fashion brands for a while now, such as H&M, ZARA. However, as I started shopping at pricier brands, I wondered why the clothes from H&M and ZARA were cheap.  I had been doing some research ever since, and the information I know as of now is... There are people who are working at far below the minimum wage and in terrible condition to make the items. The process to produce items has negative effects on the environment. The materials used also has negative effects on the environment In this blog, I would like to answer the question that I previously posted weekly!
