DARCY JADE PHILLIPS
THE FIGHT AGAINST FAST FASHION
Gen Z loves fast fashion. But would they be able to give it up if they understood the real and lasting repercussions of this industry? Would you? Darcy Jade Phillips and Hannah Delo present this observational documentary, bringing to light the dark hidden truths of the fast fashion world.
Gen Z’s obsession with fast fashion is due to several factors: the cheap price tags, accessibility, the mass of new styles weekly and how online shopping has eased the purchasing experience. Interviews on Oxford Street with Gen Z members of the public demonstrate how many people of this generation are unaware of just how detrimental this industry is on the planet.
Jose Baladron, the recycling development manager at TRAID, discusses not only the environmental but also the humanitarian global crisis this industry is causing. Experts in the fashion and activism sector, Martina Sorghi and Hannah Stanton, express their concerns for the future of fashion and provide solutions to combat unhealthy consumer habits. The Fight Against Fast Fashion uncovers a seedy industry that without immediate action could lead to the demise of our planet.
