Fashion should not get left out of discussions with respect to global warming and pollution. Textile and clothing account for 7% of global exports according to the Climate Network Neutral division (CN Net) of the United Nations Environment Protection (UNEP) agency. It is also estimated that we dispose of as much as 1 million of textiles every year. What does that equate to? Chris Jordan’s amazing photographs captures this tragic reality. To some, fashion is a simple means a necessity and to others is represents their identity, their mood, their passions and their expression in a world where we are slowly looking like each other. Are you a trendsetter? A classicist? If so, what is classic to you? Let us all try and consume less by buying pieces and respect our planet!
