The rapid growth of Fast Fashion today is the reflection of how little we care about a product’s craftsmanship or the ones who make them. Perceptions on fashion apparel have transformed from mostly tailor-made, expensive, and exclusive to cheap, ready-to-wear, and ubiquitous. Consumers now value less in the product itself, instead, they value only in brand names or logos. It is easy for us to neglect the importance of understanding the process, but the fact is that the waste culture in the fashion industry has become a true problem toward our ecosystem or even causing global warming. Waste and disposable habit collectively has developed into a global phenomenon; shoppers are used to the “today’s treasure, tomorrow’s trash” lifestyle.
