Dirty Laundry

Dirty Laundry

The average American throws away 70 pounds of clothing every year. This constant demand for clothing has given way to the expansion of the “Fast Fashion” industry, a manufacturing model in which clothes are designed, fabricated, and sold quickly to keep up with the ever-changing trends. The detriments of fast fashion extend far past the degradation of the environment and to racial and gender inequality as the industry exports its production overseas to factories that employ a disproportionate number of women whom they pay meager wages. This exhibition not only seeks to enlighten audiences about the impacts of textile consumption, but to offer solutions.
