What is the best way to fight fast fashion? 

The easiest and most effective method is – buy less and less often, which means buying expensive clothes, but they are more durable and reliable products. You also should to pay attention to how to dispose of used clothes before you throw them away, think about whether you can give them away or even sell them? And it is also worth considering donating them to a foundation that collects clothes. The final point that I would like to mention, is observing fashion fairs such as the Slow fashion in Warsaw, which places a strong emphasis on the awareness of clothes purchased.

Why do this?

In the beginning, let’s start with the fact that the modern world is facing many huge problems. Starting from the high unemployment rate, ending with climate change. However, around all these riots, a very small group of people pay attention to smaller problems, which in the future may grow on a huge scale, such an example is Fast Fashion. Although it is already quite a big concern for humanity, it can still be stopped, so you have to resist and fight as soon as possible! Unfortunately, another problem is that even if we are thinking that buying products that are made of cotton or wool are solving the problem, we are very wrong, because even they are biodegradable, their dyes or prints are not subject to decay. Clothing stores, of course, try to fight this problem, which they created themselves. However, let’s think realistically – no one will decide to change the business model that brings billions of dollars. That is why we consumers have the power to stop this problem. We decide what is good for the future, and above all for a world that is already changing through our neglect.
