The cost of fast fashion

On this episode of The Cost of Everything we take a closer look at the real cost of expensive brands vs. fast fashion clothing. It might be cheap, but what is the cost of producing so much throw-away clothing on societies, workers, and the environment? Host Christy Ai speaks with author and researcher Dr. Patsy Perry about how social media has given birth to many trends including fast fashion, and how it affects production and the environment.
