EPQ Fast Fashion Mindmap

Mindmap - The fast fashion industry

For my EPQ, I would like to delve deep into the ethical standards of the fast fashion industry and how each of us can do our bit to shop more sustainably. 

Recently, I have taken a lot more notice than I ever have before about where the clothes, shoes and accessories actually come from. I am aware that fast fashion exists, but through my EPQ I would like to take a closer look into the impact of fast fashion on people's lives. Also, I'd like to research whether for us, as consumers, it is possible to shop sustainably and ethically for good quality clothing at an affordable price. To achieve my end result, I will read a variety of articles, do my own research and watch YouTube videos on this matter - hopefully at the end I will be able to produce a dissertation which will inspire other people to think about where their clothes are coming from and to consider shopping more ethically and sustainable in the future.
