This episode was originally published on April 23, 2021 For updates on Elizabeth Cline's advocacy and policy work since this episode was recorded, go to her website at www.elizabethclinebooks.com Our guest this week is Elizabeth Cline, a New York-based author, journalist, and expert on consumer culture, fast fashion, sustainability and labor rights in the apparel industry. She is the author of Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion, which was published in 2012, and which laid the foundation for the modern global ethical and sustainable fashion movement. Her most recent book, The Conscious Closet, published in 2019, describes how consumers can transform the apparel industry and change the world for the better by making more informed decisions about what they wear every day. In this episode, Elizabeth inspires slow fashion enthusiasts to move beyond the response of merely modifying their purchasing decisions, to come together with other individuals in the wider community to impact policy change through social activism. Elizabeth discusses campaigns such as Pay Up Fashion for direct relief for garment workers that have not been paid by American companies during the pandemic, and the Garment Workers Protection Act that will provide minimum wage for garment workers in California. Elizabeth encourages consumers to embrace their civic right in bringing the malpractices and inequities of the fashion industry to light, holding brands accountable for their unethical practices and therefore affecting real change in this broken system. 1:30 - It's Fashion Revolution week! 10:00 - Elizabeth introduces herself 11:00 - Has there been much change in the last two decades in the fashion industry? 20:00 - Why are corporations not paying their factories? 28:00 - The problems in your own closet 38:00 - The PayUp Campaign  42:00 - What does The Good Dirt mean to you? 50:00 - How Farmers in West Texas inspired Elizabeth Things Mentioned: Fashion Revolution  Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion by Elizabeth Cline The Conscious Closet by Elizabeth Cline Lady Farmer Essential Collection Line and Tow Line at Lady Farmer Grace Brian The Twilight of the Ethical Consumer article PayUp Fashion SB 62 - The Garment Worker Protection Act Elizabeth Cline Instagram PayUp Fashion Instagram Greenwashing article for Patagonia Another Tomorrow The ALMANAC

Elizabeth Clines bok Overdressed: The Shockingly High Price of Cheap Fashion slog ner som en bomb i modeindustrin när den kom 2011. Den riktade strålkastaren mot snabbmodets konsekvenser. Det var en historia om exploatering av arbetare i fattiga länder, om kraftigt sjunkande relativpriser på kläder och en aldrig sinande prispress, om föroreningar och växande berg av textilavfall. Vad har hänt sedan dess? Vilka förändringar har haft störst påverkan? Vilka nya lagar och direktiv står vi inför? Hur kan företag arbeta med att förbättra arbetsvillkoren i fabrikerna? Vilka modeföretag gör bra ifrån sig? Är det möjligt att ställa sig utanför denna många gånger exploaterande struktur? Vad kan individer som du och jag göra?Trots att ämnet är tungt är samtalet hoppfullt.  Dessutom får vi höra historien bakom det framgångsrika #PayUp-initiativet och ta del av Remakes Accountability Report. Få industrier är så globala som just mode. I dagens avsnitt, liksom nästa, tittar vi närmare på konsekvenserna av denna globalisering. Intervjuade i avsnittet är Elizabeth Cline, författare till Overdressed: The Shockingly High Price of Cheap Fashion och lärare vid Columbia Climate School vid Columbia University, Tina Sendlhofer, forskare vid Stockholm Environment Institute och designern Angel Chang som är en slow fashion-förkämpe och gör kollektioner på den kinesiska landsbygden, helt utan elektricitet. Tack för att du lyssnar!

Most of us love a bargain, but when it comes to our wardrobe, there's a high cost for those cheap clothes. Fast fashion has taken the world by storm, with brands having tens of thousands — if not over a million — designs available at any moment. The consumption comes at a cost: the factory workers making those outfits are often underpaid and working in terrible conditions, and some countries have literal mountains of synthetic clothing filling their landfills. This week on The Weeds, host Jonquilyn Hill talks with Vox deputy editor Izzie Ramirez and author Elizabeth Cline about the scope of fast fashion, and how we got here in the first place.

We have reached the 100th episode of the podcast! For the past 100 episodes, at the end of each episode we have asked our guests the same question: What would a better future for fashion look like, to you? This question is important, because it sums up exactly why the podcast exists in the first place — to unpack exactly what it will take to cultivate a sustainable and equitable future for fashion.To celebrate this 100 episode milestone, we decided to mark the occasion by sharing a montage of some of our favorite answers, from guests we have had on the show, over the years. Plus, we are sharing a few listener answers to this question too. And, right at the end, we'll share our reflections on the topic as well. Enjoy listening to these visionary — yet practical — answers. Hopefully they'll give you some food for thought and reflection points for your own relationship with fashion. And thank you for tuning in to celebrate 100 episodes with us!***MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Podcast Episode: EP10: Building a Better Secondhand Fashion System with Emily StochlPodcast Episode: EP82: Rana Plaza 10 Years Later: What's Changed and What Hasn't?

In recent years, there's been an exciting increase in sustainable fashion legislation and reforms working to clean up this industry — from garment worker protections against wage theft to supply chain due diligence to greenwashing enforcement.In today's episode, Stella interviews author, educator and activist Elizabeth Cline to dive into all things fashion legislation: historical context, what's going on now, why it matters, and how you can get involved. Plus hear about:+  Why we need to move away from the binary of individual versus collective action+ How historic changes in the law have influenced the fashion industry+ The role of fashion legislation in creating a more equitable fashion future+ And how investing in the lives of garment workers is part of the overlooked solution to fashion's climate impact***SHOW NOTEShttps://www.consciouslifeandstyle.com/elizabeth-cline***CONNECT WITH ELIZABETH CLINE: 

Can fashion be truly ethical if it's not inclusive? And what would it take for a fashion brand to actually achieve inclusivity? Kat Eves is a sustainable, ethical, and inclusive fashion stylist and the founder of Style Ethic. She talks about the challenges of finding plus-size clothes (and the even greater challenge of finding ethical and sustainable plus-size clothes), and suggests ways that fashion brands can better serve the 67% of American women who wear a size 14 or larger. Kat talks about fast fashion, overconsumption, and shares how reading Elizabeth Cline's book Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion inspired her to go from shopaholic to doing a shopping ban. She also talks about her favorite pieces in her closet, what's inspiring her right now, and what makes her feel optimistic about the future.  For show notes visit: https://www.swapsociety.co/pages/podcast

In episode 262, Kestrel welcomes Roland Geyer, Professor of Industrial Ecology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, to the show. Roland is also the author of a recently released book titled “The Business Of Less: The Role Of Companies and Households On A Planet In Peril”. If you are familiar with corporate social responsibility, if you work in the field, or if you have an understanding of some of the general narratives within the space, this show may come as somewhat of a shock to you. Or maybe not – maybe you're already asking some of these questions for yourself. One thing is clear — we're doing a lot of reimagining on this show. As this week's guest points out in his recent book – “The Business Of Less” — the sustainability narrative (and the corporate sustainability conversation in particular) has been dominated by two primary tenants. The idea of the win/win paradigm – which is basically the idea that you can have your cake and eat it too. It aligns doing good with both saving the planet and saving money. In other words, sustainability only works when there's a business case for it (one that in the end, puts more profits in the pockets of the corporation). And the other focus has been on eco efficiency or decoupling. You might be familiar with the life cycle assessment or LCA, which quantifies the environmental impact per unit of product or service. This ignores the question of volume or quantity, and instead, only evaluates products on an individual level. So, while you may or may not be familiar with the above ideas – they have driven the way sustainability has been spoken about and addressed from a mainstream lens over the last few decades. Turns out, these approaches HAVE NOT WORKED. Over the last 30 years, with all the investment in CSR departments and sustainability marketing and the focus on eco and organic and recycled and circularity, we are still standing in the same place. Or maybe even worse. Our total material or resource use has not decreased – instead, it has actually gone up.  According to this week's guest, there are many ways to get us back on track – but one of the keys involves focusing on LABOR, not MATERIALS. Quotes & links from the conversation: “A Friedman Doctrine — The Social Responsibility Of Business Is To Increase Its Profits”, article by Milton Friedman that changed the focus of how business operates “H&M Plans to Double Sales, Halve Carbon Footprint by 2030” “Factor Four: Doubling Wealth, Halving Resource Use”, book published in 1997 that aligns with H&M's recent plans to double sales & halve footprint (basically, this shows how the “make more and reduce impact” approach isn't a new concept “Could Living Wages Help Solve Fashion's Climate Crisis? New Research Says Yes”, article by Elizabeth Cline for Forbes “There Is No Such Thing as a Green Product”, article co-written by Roland Nisolo's Sustainability Facts Label that Kestrel mentions Video about apparel recycling that Patagonia did in collaboration with Roland “Upset about the plastic crisis? Stop trying so hard”, op-ed that Roland wrote for The Guardian “Humans have made 8.3bn tons of plastic since 1950. This is the illustrated story of where it's gone”, illustrated story by Susie Cagle Follow Roland on Twitter > Follow Bren School at UCSB on Instagram >

When we think about sustainable fashion, we often think about the supply chain of a garment: the fabrics, dyes, worker rights along the way. But increasingly, the reverse supply chain of clothes is also becoming part of the sustainable fashion conversation. When I say reverse supply chain, I'm talking about what happens to clothes after the original wearers are done wearing them. So the secondhand supply chain.So, for a bit of background, in the United States, and other countries in the Global North, clothing donations are often promoted as a sustainable and altruistic way to give our unwanted clothing a new home. And while keeping clothes out of the landfill is certainly a worthwhile goal, the system of clothing donations — and increasingly now recycling programs or take-back programs from brands — is much more complicated and nuanced than it is advertised to be.The thing is that only 10 to 20% of items donated to charity shops like a Goodwill or a Salvation Army get sold on those shop floors. That is according to the trade association Secondary Materials and Recycled Textiles, a.k.a. SMART. And we are going to learn more about SMART and what role they've played in the global secondhand clothing trade later on.But for now, let's talk about what happens to that 80 to 90% that isn't getting sold at those charity shops.Well, SMART reports that 45% of the leftover donated clothing — the stuff that is deemed stll usable — is reused as secondhand apparel, 30% is recycled into wiping and polishing cloths, 20% is reprocessed into fibers, and the final 5% is deemed unusable.In terms of that 45% that is resold as secondhand clothing. This is typically clothing that is exported to the Global South: often to countries in Central America, Africa, and Asia. As author Elizabeth Cline reported in her book, Overdressed, 70% of clothing donations end up in Africa.In this episode, we will be focusing on the impact of these clothing donations (which as we'll find out, the word "donation" is more of a euphemism) so let's say the impact of these clothing imports on Uganda.To dive deeper into this topic, I interviewed filmmaker Nikissi Serumaga, who I have been wanting to speak to for months, and I was so humbled and excited that she agreed to come on this show. Nikissi is the creator, director, and co-host — along with Bobby Kolade — of VINTAGE OR VIOLENCE, a six part limited podcast series that explores the world of secondhand clothing from a Ugandan perspective.In this episode, you'll hear Nikissi share:The complex reverse supply chain that donated or recycled clothes go through,The social and economic impacts of secondhand clothing imports in Uganda,Who is really benefiting from this so-called circular fashion system or secondhand trade,Why Uganda — or other countries in East Africa — don't just ban the import of secondhand clothes, as is often suggested.This conversation with Nikissi was so incredibly informative and perspective-shifting and I hope that you will learn a lot from it as I did. Nikissi brought in such important nuances to this conversation and offered a lot of food for thought, that I've still been reflecting on for weeks after speaking with her! FULL SHOW NOTES & TRANSCRIPT:https://www.consciouslifeandstyle.com/secondhand-clothing-trade-vintage-or-violence/ LINKS MENTIONED:“Charity has become commerce.”, a quote by Andrew BrooksVintage or Violence PodcastAGOA ActSMART(Article) Secondhand fashion: Is it really good for Africa?(Article) This Is Not Your Goldmine.

Gaby explores the world of fast fashion and greenwashing with Overdressed author and Remake and PayUp activist Elizabeth L. Cline. With all these celebrities shilling for Shein, Fashion Nova, and other fast fashion brands, these companies are gaining into the billions with terrible garment worker practices, huge environmental waste and by stealing designs from marginalized artists.

This is part one of a conversation with Marzia Lanfranchi and Elizabeth Cline, co-authors of the new report: Cotton: A Case Study in Misinformation. The chat is co-hosted by Sarah Mock.

This is part two of a conversation with Marzia Lanfranchi and Elizabeth Cline, co-authors of the new report: Cotton: A Case Study in Misinformation. The chat is co-hosted by Sarah Mock.

How can the fashion industry increase its data literacy to make informed decisions on sustainability, create honest marketing claims, and avoid unintentional greenwashing? In part one of this conversation, host Brittany Sierra spoke with Elizabeth and Marizia to understand why misinformation matters and how becoming critical data consumers will help the industry create actionable change. In this weeks episode, and part two of the conversation, Elizabeth and Marzia share advice to journalists covering sustainability, explain whether or not legislation will truly be a solution to greenwashing and misinformation and outline where the fashion industry should go from here. Show Notes: https://bit.ly/3HfAhgG

Fashion has a serious and growing misinformation problem. As customers demand sustainability, fashion is responding by making a pointed effort to prioritize people and the planet. However, as brands increase sustainability ambitions, rampant misinformation leads brands to make pivotal business decisions based on unsubstantiated claims, outdated facts, and flawed data. While there have been many efforts to address fashion's misinformation disorder, a new report commissioned by the Transformers Foundation is taking it a step further. The report, co-authored by Elizabeth Cline and Marizia Lanfranchi titled "Cotton: A Case Study on Misinformation," not only debunks four of the most common false claims in the cotton industry but also lays down a roadmap for accurate data research and industry-wide data transparency. How can the fashion industry increase its data literacy to make informed decisions on sustainability, create honest marketing claims, and avoid unintentional greenwashing? This week's episode of the Crash Course Fashion podcast is part of a two-part series where Brittany Sierra chats with Elizabeth and Marizia to understand why misinformation matters and how becoming critical data consumers will help the industry create actionable change.

Welcome to this episode of the Women Changing The World podcast. In this episode, I interview Melanie Conover, who, in addition to her day job as a clinical social worker and director of people and culture at Sanctuary Night, is also a mindful consumer coach and a Remake Our World ambassador. Melanie empowers people to make more conscious decisions with their purchases and become advocates for better supply chain working conditions. We talk about:

Whatever you do, don't throw it away! Eager to get rid of the unwanted clothing and home décor that you've been putting aside all year? This episode explores how to properly dispose of and/or use everything from broken furniture to stained clothing. Podcast guests include: Elizabeth Cline, a New York-based author, journalist, and expert on consumer culture, fast fashion, sustainability, and labor rights in the apparel industry. Author of “Overdressed” and “The Conscious Closet.” Emilia Ferrara, award-winning journalist, consultant, and teacher. Author of "Mag World: Mad Magazines, Fad Fashion, Bad Beauty And Finding The Way Out." Rebecca Margao, owner of The Shed DC and the lifestyle blog, The Black Rebecca.

In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic and the lockdowns that followed exposed and exacerbated the exploitation and inequalities that have always been at the centre of the global fashion industry. In this end-of-the-year bonus episode from us at Remember Who Made Them, we discuss how we can inspire ethical consumers to become consumer activists. We talk with author and one of the initiators of #PayUp Fashion campaign: Elizabeth Cline and to labour organiser Andrew Tillet Saks about how brands hold the power and what more we can do to be in solidarity with workers. Venetia also talks to two Myanmar based workers, Tin Tin Wei: union president at Running-Tex Garment Factory and an organizer for the Federation of Garment Workers Myanmar and Thuzar Kyi, union president at Amber Stone factory. Myanmar hit the headlines earlier this year when several news outlets reported widespread violence and intimidation of workers which were also raised in the report by Business and Human Rights on emerging and widespread patterns of supplier factories appearing to target unionised workers, organising for better conditions who were being aggressively and illegally dismissed.Tin Tin and Thuzar’s stories are incredibly powerful and we hope listening to their commitment to work everyday for a more fair and just fashion industry will inspire you. We also give deep gratitude to Shin, who translated for Tin Tin and Thuzar so more of you could hear their powerful stories.

Almost every entrepreneur is, in one way or another, in the habit of constantly seeking more. That’s never been truer than with this week’s guest, a self-described renegade from her childhood days growing up in a small Texas town and onto a career steeped in impactful marketing campaigns and, from there, to her current status challenging the fashion industry’s status quo. Meet this week's guest, Elizabeth Cline, author of The Conscious Closet. Now decades into her quest to change the way the fashion industry approaches fit through a scientific study of body shape, this female founder has pushed new ideas in an industry notoriously resistant to change, especially when it comes to new technology and new production norms. With her latest company, BOTASCI (a.k.a. body, data, science), Lee aims to make it possible for women to shop only for the clothes that fit their bodies seamlessly using technology that any retailer could adopt and, by getting the right garments to the right people at the right time, reduce throwaway clothes, textile waste and costly ecommerce returns. Listen to this week’s episode of the Spirit of 608 podcast for her story as a serial entrepreneur, get motivated by her willingness to go against the grain to pursue her vision and get inspired by her thoughts on the mind’s role in making the life you want to lead a reality.  

When last we met, our national election was just underway. We now have a new President-elect in Joe Biden and a new Vice President-elect in Kamala Harris. This bodes well for our country as we look forward to working with the administration in advocating for the laws, regulations, and policies we need to protect our environment and reverse climate change, repair racial injustices, and address the pandemic and economic inequality. Our democracy is in tatters and we need to mend our relationship with it, as well as learn to mend our clothes. This episode considers chapter one of Rebecca Burgess' book "The Cost of Our Clothes". Like the Slow Food Movement that preceded it, the Fibershed Movement began small; there are now more than fifty fibersheds across North America, the UK, Europe, and Australia. From my own perspective: Buy Less (overconsumption is unsustainable) Buy Better Quality Make it Last (fewer machine washings and dryings) Learn to Mend (sew on the button, repair the tear) Make (learn to sew, knit, refashion) Organize (question the laws, regulations, policies; demand greater transparency) Several links mentioned in this episode: Joe Biden's "Plan for Climate Change and Environmental Justice": https://joebiden.com/climate-plan/ (See also the administration's new transition website: https://buildbackbetter.com/) Ellen MacArthur Foundation: https://www.ellenmacarthurfoundation.org/ Elizabeth Cline's recent article on Atmos, "The Twilight of the Ethical Consumer": https://atmos.earth/ethical-consumerism/ Fair Wages for garment workers, globally (sign the petition): https://payupfashion.com/ Greenpeace fact sheet, "Timeout for Fast Fashion", 2016: https://wayback.archive-it.org/9650/20200401053856/http://p3-raw.greenpeace.org/international/Global/international/briefings/toxics/2016/Fact-Sheet-Timeout-for-fast-fashion.pdf

Our everyday clothing is an exciting form of personal expression.  Both necessary and artistic, timeless and of the moment, the clothes we wear say so much about us. But the fashion industry has a dark side: it produces 10% of all global carbon emissions and consumes nearly 1.5 trillion liters of water each year. Elizabeth Cline, author of The Conscious Closet: The Revolutionary Guide to Looking Good While Doing Good, talked about the current state of the fashion industry and shared seven ways that we can cultivate a more conscious, ethical, and sustainable closet.

Welcome to this special report on how garment workers around the world are being impacted by COVID-19. Fashion is being severely impacted by the shutdowns. You might argue, the sustainable business is the one that survives this. But as usual, it is the worst off who bear the brunt, because they don’t have safety nets to catch them.  How is coronavirus impacting garment workers around the world? Why are activists calling for brands to #payup as factories reel under the strain of cancelled orders? And what's the outlook for a sustainable fashion industry long-term? Featuring Remake's Ayesha Barenblat, journalist Elizabeth Cline, union and NGO leaders Kalpona Akter, Rubana Huq and William Conklin, and factory owner Mostafiz Uddin, as well as the first-hand experience of a garment worker who's been laid off, this episode is a call for brands to act responsibly.  Love the show?

We all know that something is seriously wrong with Fashion. But what’s harder to uncover is exactly what is wrong, and why? Getting to the bottom of questions like these requires the help of an expert. An expert... like Elizabeth Cline.

In episode 181, Kestrel welcomes New York-based author, journalist, and expert on consumer culture, fast fashion, sustainability and labor rights, Elizabeth Cline, back to the show. You may already know of Elizabeth from her widely read book, Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion; and she recently released a follow-up book called The Conscious Closet: A Revolutionary Guide to Looking Good While Doing Good. “The book in a lot of ways is very informed by moving away from fast fashion — so, really remembering that clothing is not a disposable good, because it just requires too many resources and too much energy to create.” - Elizabeth Cline, Author of Overdressed + The Conscious Closet On this week’s show, Elizabeth shares with us what she’s been working on, as well as her perspective on how much the fashion industry has shifted, since the last time she was on the show, almost 4 years ago. Kestrel + Elizabeth dive into some of the inspiration and details about her new book, The Conscious Closet. For Elizabeth, a lot of what drove the direction for her new book was her education on the secondhand market globally, and how clothing cannot be considered a disposable product. Also, in this chat, Elizabeth reveals some of her favorite ways to personally build a conscious closet. The below thoughts, ideas + organizations were brought up in this chat: “I understand the power of personal style because of conscious fashion, not in spite of it.” “And over time, it became more about, ‘wait — if we question the industrial food system, then the result of that, is that we also get to rebuild our food culture,’ and that is what’s happening with fashion — we are deciding as a community that clothing can be about more than mindless consumption and chasing the lowest price and buying whatever companies tell us to buy.” The Buyerarchy Of Needs by Sarah Lazarovic Some of Elizabeth’s favorite places to shop secondhand online: Poshmark, thredUp + The RealReal LA FRIENDS | Get Tickets for The Conscious Closet event featuring Elizabeth Cline at The Helms Design Center on October 27th from 2-4pm

How can we combat the waste that is plaguing the fashion industry? New York-based journalist and author of Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion, Elizabeth Cline rejoins Kate to discuss fashion waste, industry fixes and how to reclaim our love of fashion.

In episode 69 of Conscious Chatter, Kestrel welcomes Alex van Os, eco stylist and founder of Op Shop To Runway to the show. Alex is an Australian Red Cross Op Shop Ambassador and a fashion & TV stylist on a mission: to help people realize that having killer style doesn't mean you have to kill the earth in the process. For her, second hand doesn't mean second best! Stat from the introduction, found via Elizabeth Cline, author of Overdressed:  Every single minute Americans toss out 47,564 pounds of unwanted clothing and textiles (that’s enough to fill three olympic size pools). In this chat, Kestrel asks Alex about her background, and how she found herself engulfed in pushing for a less wasteful fashion industry. They also discuss the challenges / balance of working as a mainstream stylist (to make money) + partnering with influencers to bring the sustainable conversation further into the mainstream.  Tune in for Alex's key second hand shopping + styling tricks at 00:24:50 of the episode.  Another really interesting element that arose in this conversation is the idea of heirlooms, and how with the influence of fast fashion, there's a big question of what our generation will pass down to future children, family or friends, when so many things today are built to fall apart or wear out after a few washings. Listen to this part at 00:30:55.

It's Climate Week in NYC, guest Elizabeth Cline, author of Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion will join to discuss the role of cheap fashion on the environment, plus her current project(s) and what you can do to change.

A trendy outfit has never been cheaper than it is today. Not only that, the fashion industry is churning out new styles so quickly that the entire phenomenon has been dubbed fast fashion. The industry includes retailers like H&M, Forever 21, Zara, and even Target and Walmart. Of course, it’s only natural that we love finding the latest styles at affordable prices. But our clothes have abundant hidden costs for both the environment and people. This week, producer Leslie Chang takes a closer look at the footprint left behind by the fast-moving fashion industry. We hear from journalist Elizabeth Cline, author of ‘Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion,’ as well as UMass Dartmouth Asst. Prof. Nick Anguelov, author of ‘The Dirty Side of the Garment Industry: Fast Fashion and Its Negative Impact on Environment and Society.’

As society transitions to more healthier choices for food, natural body care, and greener transportation, one area of daily life remaining largely unchanged is our clothing. This hour looks at the social, environmental, and economic costs of the apparel industry and ways we can start improving lives everywhere with the choices we make today.Guest(s):Elizabeth Cline, Author, Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion, Brooklyn, NY

Nicole talks about two types of horror-filled places today: the garment factory collapse in Bangladesh that claimed 803 lives as of today with "Overdressed" author Elizabeth Cline, and the house in Cleveland where at least 3 women were held captive for over a decade. Crooks & Liars' Susie Madrak and She's History's Amy Simon joined the discussion

Kvalitet inom modet, finns det? Denna vecka vrider och vänder STIL på begreppet för att se vad människor i modebranschen laddar ordet kvalitet med. Vi har bland annat besökt Stockholms modevecka, eller Mercedez Benz Fashion Week som den korrekta benämningen är, och talat med modeskapare och besökare om de vet vad de egentligen har på sig - bomull, elastan, polyester, lycra? Under de internationella modeveckorna som snart drar igång (de börjar i New York den 3 september för att valsa vidare genom London och Milano för att sluta i Paris den 3 oktober) överöses vi med information om stilar, snitt och färger – och vilka som satt i publiken, minglade på efterfester och vad de hade på sig. Men vilka material är kläderna egentligen tillverkade av? Och spelar det egentligen någon roll? Ja, det anser allt fler. Vi har bland annat ringt upp den amerikanska journalisten Elizabeth Cline som nyligen publicerat boken Overdressed – the shockingly high cost of cheap fashion. Boken handlar om hur det ”demokratiska modet”, med billiga plagg från stora kedjor – det mode som ofta kallas för ”fast fashion” – har påverkat vårt sätt att både konsumera och kassera kläder. I boken kartlägger hon de billiga klädernas historia, och berättar hur de har påverkat vår syn på kvalitet, och kläder i stort. För många innebär kläder idag något man shoppar ofta, snabbt och mycket. Vi köper faktiskt fyra gånger mer kläder än vad vi gjorde för trettio år sedan, vilket innebär att vi släpar hem ungefär 30 kilo kläder om året. Vi har även träffat en klädintresserad dam på 82 år, Eva Almqvist, som berättar om vad hon anser att kvalitetskläder är. I programmet ger vi dessutom en snabbguide till hur vår syn på kläder förändrats genom åren. Och så har vi som sagt pratat med en mängd modeskapare, journalister och besökare under modeveckan i Stockholm för att höra vad de har att säga om ämnet kvalitet, idag. Veckans gäst är Sofia Hedström, modejournalist och författare till boken Modemanifestet, de stilsmartas handbok.

This episode was originally published on April 23, 2021 For updates on Elizabeth Cline's advocacy and policy work since this episode was recorded, go to her website at www.elizabethclinebooks.com Our guest this week is Elizabeth Cline, a New York-based author, journalist, and expert on consumer culture, fast fashion, sustainability and labor rights in the apparel industry. She is the author of Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion, which was published in 2012, and which laid the foundation for the modern global ethical and sustainable fashion movement. Her most recent book, The Conscious Closet, published in 2019, describes how consumers can transform the apparel industry and change the world for the better by making more informed decisions about what they wear every day. In this episode, Elizabeth inspires slow fashion enthusiasts to move beyond the response of merely modifying their purchasing decisions, to come together with other individuals in the wider community to impact policy change through social activism. Elizabeth discusses campaigns such as Pay Up Fashion for direct relief for garment workers that have not been paid by American companies during the pandemic, and the Garment Workers Protection Act that will provide minimum wage for garment workers in California. Elizabeth encourages consumers to embrace their civic right in bringing the malpractices and inequities of the fashion industry to light, holding brands accountable for their unethical practices and therefore affecting real change in this broken system. 1:30 - It's Fashion Revolution week! 10:00 - Elizabeth introduces herself 11:00 - Has there been much change in the last two decades in the fashion industry? 20:00 - Why are corporations not paying their factories? 28:00 - The problems in your own closet 38:00 - The PayUp Campaign  42:00 - What does The Good Dirt mean to you? 50:00 - How Farmers in West Texas inspired Elizabeth Things Mentioned: Fashion Revolution  Overdressed: The Shockingly High Cost of Cheap Fashion by Elizabeth Cline The Conscious Closet by Elizabeth Cline Lady Farmer Essential Collection Line and Tow Line at Lady Farmer Grace Brian The Twilight of the Ethical Consumer article PayUp Fashion SB 62 - The Garment Worker Protection Act Elizabeth Cline Instagram PayUp Fashion Instagram Greenwashing article for Patagonia Another Tomorrow The ALMANAC
