The Dangers of Fast Fashion | Coppa

, Some of us don’t care what we wear while others seek to express
themselves through fashion. Neither is wrong nor right but no matter
where you fall on the spectrum, your buying power affects the
environment. Fast fashion is a recent global phenomenon that
arose as a result of globalisation.

This process can be defined as mass produced garments that are
readily available in record time to be purchased online or in a store.
This has been seen as a marker of progress for the fashion industry
because of how easy it is to obtain global fashions but many of us
haven’t stopped to consider what this means for the environment
and other people.

Not only does fast fashion contribute to child slavery and
sweatshops, but it also destroys the environment in a number of
ways. These include using a massive amount of electricity, water,
and natural resources to create single garments. Even after the
garment has been created, the clothing still needs to be washed and
go through wear and tear. Making clothes cheaply not only means
that the clothing does not last but also that a lot more chemicals
enter the groundwater through the process of continual washing of
synthetic fabrics.

Another problem arises from the global culture of things being “in” or “out” of fashion. This would be alright if clothing was made to be
biodegradable but instead, it’s thrown out and lies in landfills for as much as 200 years, as in the case of polyester.

Many brands such as H&M, Nike and Zara have made headlines for producing their clothes this way, but this does little to stop their
practices. The best way to change the way popular fashion brands make their clothes, is to boycott them altogether. But what will you
wear? We have the answer: sustainable fashion brands.

An example of one of these brands is To Be Frank which is based in the UK. Creators of these pieces use recycled materials to do so,
promoting products that are made from organic materials like apples. They don’t sacrifice on customer favourites, creating leather and
denim looks that are identical to those made by mainstream fashion brands, only better made and with the environment in mind.

There are plenty of other brands who are following suit in terms of creating slow fashion that is ethically sourced. Another option
