To Die For
An expose on the fashion industry written by the Observers Ethical Living columnist examining the inhumane and environmentally devastating story behind the clothes we so casually buy and wear. Coming at a time when the global financial crisis and contracting of consumer spending is ushering in a new epoch for the fashion industry To Die For offers a very plausible vision of how green could really be the new black. Taking particular issue with our current mania for both big-name labels and cheap fashion To Die For sets an agenda for the urgent changes that can and need to be made by both the industry and the consumer. Far from outlining a future of drab ethical clothing Lucy Siegle believes that it is indeed possible to be an ethical fashionista simply by being aware of how and where (and
by whom) clothing is manufactured. The global banking crisis has put the consumer at a crossroads: when money is tight should we embrace cheap fast fashion to prop up an already engorged wardrobe or should we reject this as the ultimate false economy and advocate a return to real fashion bolstered by the principles of individualism and style pedigree? In this impassioned book Siegle analyses the global epidemic of unsustainable fashion taking stock of our economic health and moral accountabilities to expose the pitfalls of fast fashion. Refocusing the debate squarely back on the importance of basic consumer rights Siegle reveals the truth behind cut price bulk fashion and the importance of your purchasing decisions advocating the case for a new sustainable design era where we are assured
of value for money: ethically morally and in real terms.
