ABOUT SLOWING DOWN FAST FASHION
Exposing the enormous cost of our disposable approach to clothing. Alex James, Blur-bassist turned cheesemaker, presents this critical look at the fashion industry, and its enormous human and environmental cost. Far from predicting the apocalypse Slowing Down Fast Fashion seeks to provide solutions. By talking to designers, activists, and high street brands the film shows that there is a wide-ranging and ever-growing thirst for change as consumers start to look at clothes the way they look at food.
