“If we don’t know where our clothes are being made, then it is difficult for relevant stockholders to work together to fix problems"

MAKING A PROJECT
Only second-hand clothing was used during the making of this project.
Most of the pictures were made in my local charity shop, some of them made in my house in Cardiff and in my home village in Poland.
Most of my audio comes from conversations of Clare Press, who hosts WARDROBE CRISIS podcast.
Everyone can be a mindful fashion consumer and still have fun.
​
Fashion Revolution website is a good starting point in the journey of better clothing shopping.
Thanks to my boyfriend who was the model and to charity shop manager, who was the stylist.
