Fashionopolis : the price of fast fashion & the future of clothes / Dana Thomas.

• Ready to wear -- The price of furious fashion -- Dirty laundry -- Field to form -- Rightshoring -- My blue heaven -- We can work it out -- Around and around we go -- Rage against the machine -- To buy or not to buy.

• What should I wear? It's one of the questions we ask ourselves every day and now, more than ever, we are told it should be something new. The clothing industry churns out 20 billion garments a year and employs every 6th person on Earth, Historically, the apparel trade has exploited labour, the environment and intellectual property. With the explosion of fast fashion, globalization and the tech revolution, those abuses have multiplied exponentially - and primarily out of view. In Fashionopolis, bestselling author and journalist and author Dana Thomas has travelled the globe to dicover the visionary designers and companies who are propelling the industry towards a more positive future to produce better fashion. Thomas sees renewal in a host of developments, including 3D printing, clean denim processing, smart manufacturing, hyperlocalism, fabric recycling - even lab-grown materials,. We have all been casual about our clothes. It's time to get dressed with intention. Fashionopolis is the first comprehensive look at how to start.
