The real cost of fast fashion - #132

The fashion industry is one of the biggest in the world, and it's not slowing down. Fast fashion is making it easier and cheaper for us to update our wardrobes than ever, but it's coming with some hidden costs.

On this special episode of Pocket Money, we explore this world from a new perspective. We learn how the industry is rife with major challenges from murky supply chains to labour rights and ecological impact, plus uncover some ways we can begin to play a positive role.

To help us understand the complicated issue, we are joined by a few experts and activists who are helping push fashion toward a more ethical and sustainable future and learn how the Slow Fashion movement has begun to spark more transparent conversations around our closets and choices. 

This episode is proudly presented by Glam Corner.
