Ethical fashion on the high street.
After hearing “ohhhh ethical fashionable clothes that’s just what we need in King’s Lynn, you can’t get that anywhere around here”
It’s good to hear these comments. It got me thinking perhaps people aren’t aware enough about ethical fashion because
people like the thought of it but unless it’s right there for them to see, they don’t do anything about buying it??
I may be way off but that’s what I reckon anyways!
So I did a little research on actual shops on the high street that stock ethical or fair trade clothes.
Shops I came up with -
*New look
*Marks and Spencers
*Tesco’s
*Topshop
*Laura Ashley
*Debenhams
There are probably and hopefully more but these are the ones I have come across. It’s great that fairtrade is getting onto the high street.
However it only seems to be fairtrade organic cotton t-shirts on offer, hardly fashion statements!
Small steps forward for ethical fashion will have big consequences in the long run, a bit like the tortoise and hare race!!
