“Quality Over Quantity”

On a planet flooded with fast fashion options like SHEIN, where prices are low, crawls an uncomfortable truth.

The hidden costs to people are enormous, and the environment is high, which makes it important to consider the consequence of our clothing choices.

Searching for high-quality clothes from reputable brands might come with a higher price tag, but the benefits extend beyond the initial purchase.

SHEIN, for instance, has gained fame for its questionable labor practices and disregard for environmental sustainability.

This happens particularly in regions like China.

Reports suggest that workers often receive meager wages, and the environmental toll of their production processes is undeniable.

I believe that choosing to buy from such brands indirectly supports these harmful practices.

Contrastingly, some brands prioritize the quality of their products and also their social and environmental responsibilities, which I stand by.

Take Patagonia, for example.
