get clothes that are on trend. Fast fashion brands and designers offer new stylish pieces of
clothing inspired by runway shows at a very low price. Fast fashion companies are

AGAINST

Fast fashion’s impact on the planet is immense. Fast fashion negative impact includes its
use of cheap, toxic textile dyes. Polyester is one of the most popular fabrics. It contributes
to global warming and increasing levels of plastic in our oceans when washed. Also the
cotton requires enormous quantities of water. This results in drought risks. The speed at
which clothes are produced also means that more and more clothes are thrown away by
consumers creating massive textile waste. According to sustain your style 35 kg textile
waste is generated per person in one year

Animals are also impacted by fast fashion. The toxic dyes and microfibers are ingested by
land and marine life. And when animal products such as leather, fur, and even wool are
used in fashion directly., welfare is put at risk. As example, numerous scandals reveal that
fur, including cat and dog fur, is often being passed off as faux fur. According to the food
and agriculture Organization, many animals are often hunted, farmed and skinned alive.
Many people don’t understand or choose to ignore the cruelty that animals have to face.
welfare is put at risk.
ANIMALS OR CONTAMINATION
I can say that these companies produce for consumers who are more interested in trends
without seeing the problem in depth. what fast fashion is doing its that people are more
aware on that side of the industry, joining organizations that defend animals and thinking
about recycling, some companies are beginning to invest in local brands, although it is a
minority, it is seen that there is interest
WORKERS
According to Sizer some companies have committed to paying a decent salary instead of
paying for the amount of clothing they work with and I can say that this trend of consuming
fast fashion is making people more aware of the work behind it, and valuing them more,
joining to campaigns or supporting local producers

Research finds that while some brands have made commitments to pay living wages,
these commitments are not showing significant results.
Almost none of these companies developed a living wage methodology and calculated a
living wage for each region that it operates in. Very few of these companies pay a living
wage, and most don’t have projects to improve.

but they are also subjected to dangerous working conditions with no benefits or protection..
The combination of working long hours, underpayment and extremely unsafe conditions
are just some ways companies exploit their workers. And this exploitation is just another
one of the negative effects of fast fashion.

Living wages are essential since if a family cannot afford to live a normal life, the last thing
they will think about is saving the environment and making more environmental choices.
