Who made my clothes?

May 18, 2016, 11:54 AM

The global Fashion Revolution Week campaign aims to make the fashion industry more accountable and highlight the plight of garment workers who make our clothes. I wanted to explore how young people are changing the fashion industry to make it more empowering, as opposed to exploitative. This mini podcast explores young people's views on sustainable/ethical fashion issues, including two interviews with new ethically-minded designers. Whilst we all buy and wear clothes, behind the glitz and glamour the fashion industry is the second most polluting to our planet after oil...yet this issue doesn't receive enough exposure. Huge Thanks to Orsola de Castro, Katie Jones and Iona McCreath for contributing at such short notice #fashionrevolution #whomademyclothes #radio #doc #ethical #fashion
