Where do clothes go when they die? Fast-fashion brands like Temu and Shein dominate the clothing market by encouraging over-consumption and rapid disposal of low-quality clothing.Â
Fashion--especially of the fast variety--is none of our business, but quality certainly is. Join us June 27th for a panel discussion with local university professors about the high costs of fast fashion, and why we put such a high priority on quality. We'll talk about why responsible clothing design matters and how it impacts a garment's end of life.Â
As always, we'll have food, drinks, and a chance-to-win some Patagonia gear. All you need to bring is some good questions. See you there!
