We crossed a worrying line in 2014, scaling up garment production to 100bn pieces of new clothing a year. 2. Without rapid reform, the fashion industry – of which fast fashion is the dominant player – could be responsible for a quarter of the Earth’s carbon budget by 2050. 3.

The one point where we should have stopped the madness, it was the aftermath of the morning of 23 April 2013, when the Rana Plaza complex in Bangladesh collapsed. More than 1,300 people, mostly young female garment workers making for western brands, died in the disaster, which exposed the true cost of our fast-fashion habit 5.
