I always receive a huge variety of comments, messages and e-mails on my (un)ethical fashion posts and as loads of the less than complimentary responses contain the same basic theme I thought it might be wise to tackle it head on.
So just what is the devil’s advocate of unethical fashion that so many feel compelled to contact me and share their opinions about?
The fight for a living wage for garment workers or more specifically:
“Isn’t a low wage better than no wage at all?”
Have a listen to my thoughts about this topic + a few facts & figures from The Clean Clothes campaign too!
Here’s all of the links mentioned in this episode:

Disclaimer: I am not at all an expert on the big business of fast fashion however I am a concerned consumer who has chosen to learn & share as much as I can through my own personal experiences & the wealth of resources available online.
