It’s time to unzip the truth about fashion.
.
We urgently need more transparency.
.
Fashion supply chains are huge and complex, with garments passing through many countries and factories before reaching the high street. But the label only says “Made in Bangladesh”
.
Within the story of a piece of clothing lies all of the secrets the fashion industry doesn’t want you to see. The rot, the child labour, the low wages, factory accidents, communities that are dying from the affects of pesticide or drinking water heavy with poisonous dyes.
.
Stellar work is being done by all manner of organisations and individuals for the same cause and that should be applauded, but brands just aren’t listening and with the UK Government frankly ignoring the evidence of a climate and human right emergency in the latest EAC report who are we supposed to turn to?
.
We have to do more ourselves to clean up the mess. I know that I can do more. Asking #WhoMadeMyClothes isn’t only reserved for @fash_rev week! Brands need to know that we care, all of the time. .
So stay mad at fashion brands. Stay mad about those £1 bikinis, cultural appropriation, fake feminist t-shirts, backtracking on the promise of living wages, all of the filth that the fashion industry pumps out, how little it cares for its garment workers, and how little consequence they face for their abhorrent actions.
.
I need to see that brands admit they are at fault and are accountable for their workers and the environment. It’s a huge mission, but they have the wealth and power to do so much more.

Tell me honestly, could you look me in the eye and admit you’ve never thought this?
.
If you can, you’re stronger than I am.
.
The “nothing to wear” mindset is common and nothing to be ashamed of. I often feel dissatisfied whilst looking at my own wardrobe.
.
We live in such a capitalist society, full of dirty advertising propaganda, aimed mainly at women to make us want things that we don’t need. Namely, fast fashion. But buying new doesn’t equate to happiness.
.
It’s everywhere, you see beautiful, harmfully unrealistic, uniform models wearing sought after clothes and can’t help but compare them to yourself even subconsciously. It’s plastered on public transport, telly, magazines, even as you listen to streaming services. You can’t escape it.
.
I want to mention the ways that you can reinvent your wardrobe when you get bored. .
Go on, get everything out. Go through your clothes. Put them in a pile on your bed. Why don’t you wear certain things? How can they become your favourite again?
.
You can use embroidery, dye, even cut things up, re invent them, repair them. Have them altered if they don’t fit or take them to a clothing swap and share with friends. .
If you’re really pushed, buy second hand or invest in sustainable brands, only if you really love and need a new item. The #30wears rule is a good one to only buy things you won’t get sick of.
.
If you’re like me, and avoiding buying new clothes but sometimes feeling bored of it I want to say that I’m with you and to remind you to remember the importance of why you started. The bigger picture, that it’s essential for us to buy less if we want to help stop the climate crisis. We also need to realise our privilege and support garment workers to ensure they are being treated fairly and demand a living wage.
.
The last thing we need to do is buy mindlessly. It won’t do any good for you, the planet, or garment workers.
.
Stay strong.

Who Made Your Feminist Tshirt?
.
Idag säljs "feministiska" tshirts, kläder och annan merchandise i varenda större klädbutik runtom i världen.
Feminism har blivit en produkt som går att köpa. För en aaalldeles för billig peng.
.
För vem tror du tillverkar dessa kläder? Produkter?
.
Det är i över 80% av fallen kvinnor.
.
Och vilka levnadsvillkor tror du dessa kvinnor har när du betalar 79.90 för din "smash the patriarchy" tshirt på H&M?
.
Det finns inget som är "billiga kläder"... någon måste betala priset för dem.
Och just nu är det de fattiga kvinnorna, i fattiga länder, som betalar priset för att vi ska kunna överkonsumera kläder, som vi inte behöver...
Det är åt helvete rent ut sagt!
.
Det är dags att vi här i västvärlden vaknar upp, tar vårt ansvar och ser till att ALLA kvinnor har rätt till en jämlik värld!
.
Så om du har tänkt köpa en "feministisk tshirt" inför internationella kvinnodagen... fråga dig själv innan du köper den:
Vem har gjort din feministiska tshirt?

Esse é o coletivo de dois do @coelhogarimpeiro
O Coelho Garimpeiro foi criado por duas amigas, Amanda e Gabriela, que em 2011 se conheceram no curso técnico de Moda do Senac Jundiaí @senacjundiaioficial . Este curso foi muito importante para que elas tomassem a decisão de ingressar no curso de graduação em Moda da FMU @fmu_oficial em São Paulo, do qual saíram com um sonho: abrir um brechó conceitual e diferenciado em Jundiaí. Iniciaram com uma loja online e em um ano conseguiram abrir sua loja em um espaço físico.
O Coelho Garimpeiro está localizado na rua Marechal Deodoro da Fonseca, n° 367 Jundiaí/SP.
Desde o início, têm como propósito trazer ao público roupas diferenciadas e únicas, sempre comprometidas com a sustentabilidade e o consumo consciente.
♻️♻️♻️♻️♻️♻️
Não há roupa mais sustentável do que aquela que já existe.
Transformar o que já existe e ressignificar modelos antigos de criação, produção & consumo!
Considere o #MINIMALISMO e o #upcycling, repense seus hábitos

REPOST @Tickover_ ❤️❤️ “Fast fashion is a feminist issue.
...
A huge proportion of garment workers are women.
Women who aren’t paid a living wage.
Women who don’t have basic workplace safety and are at risk of terrible accidents.
Women who have to send their children elsewhere so that they can earn enough to support them by working insane overtime.
Women that have no choice but to allow sexual harassment and disrespect at work.
Women who are not allowed to form unions.
Women who’s lives are NO less important than yours or mine.
Women that have individual beauty and talent who are vastly overlooked as we stare at our wardrobes thinking that we have “Nothing to wear.”
Women that deserve MORE from us.
...

A moment from yesterday (and a quick chance to say thank you for supporting me and my many messages. Instagram has my whole heart because of the power it brings us in the palm of our hands. My blog is still my everything but Instagram, I owe you a whole lot).
Also - happy belated IWD. I got caught up in a whirlwind yesterday (of good things!) and felt as if I didn't share the love enough. My shout-out though? It goes out to all the women who make our clothes; fast-fashion (or the manufacturing of clothes in general) is a feminist issue and we must never forget that.
