how to break up with fast fashion

cover of 'how to break up with fast fashion'

when faced with the enormous task of fighting climate change, one can very easily feel overwhelmed. after all, what difference can one single individual make? this is precisely the question lauren bravo intends to answer in ‘how to break up with fast fashion’.

and believe me (or rather her), one person can do a lot.

notnewyear

in ‘how to break up with fast fashion’, bravo recounts her experiences from her notnewyear. the year she vowed not to buy fast fashion.

always on the fun, easy side, but intertwined with just enough facts and background information to be neither dry, nor fluffy, bravo’s book reads like a chat with a good, old friend.

a knowledgable friend. one with good values and good research. one who’s been there and knows from experience what they’re talking about.

and that friend is ready to impart her wisdom on you : why you should do it too (hint : because it’s better for the planet and all people either making or wearing clothes), how you could do it and what to do after you’ve done it.

are you ready for a break-up?

best of all, bravo never judges. she understand that fast fashion is situated in a context where privilege and power dynamics come out to play.

she knows it’s hard.

she sees things the way they are and the way they could be. and as such, she makes the reader see that vision too.

so, the only question that really remains, is : are you ready for a break-up?
