Consumers are now looking for stores with the lowest price and newest products. However, the average consumer rarely stops to think about the true cost (If you haven't watched the documentary The True Cost its on Netflix). As a designer it is extremely important that we are fully aware of the impact the fashion industry has on the world, because it is one of the largest global industries. But, in order to find a permanent solution to the problems we uncover there needs to be universal understanding of whats going on. Everyone should understand where exactly their clothing is coming from, and know the ethical complications that they could unknowably be supporting.
