Behind the Seams
Creating a piece of clothing involves many different steps and people along the way. You, the consumer who wears the garment, are at one end. At the other end are the people who grow and harvest the cotton, weave the fabric, and cut and sew the final garment.
As a consumer, it's challenging to see all of the people in this long line of workers in the fashion industry. Transparency is severely lacking in the fashion industry. Our goal is to change that. Unfortunately, child labor is often used to make so much of today's clothing, especially in fast fashion. Additionally, many factories have unsafe working conditions. We must demand better!
