Abstract

Fashion often associated with creativity and self-expression, yet behind the glossy magazine covers and trendy outfits, a hidden world thrives, one of extreme water use, mountains of discarded clothes, and invisible hands working in unsafe conditions. This article reveals the shocking truth behind the rapid clothing production system of “fast fashion” and its real consequences and invites readers to reconsider what lies behind everyday fashion choices.
