The fashion industry often turns a blind eye to the human cost of fast fashion: sweatshop labor, poor working conditions, and exploitation of garment workers in developing countries.

This highlights the need for greater accountability and ethical sourcing practices to ensure the protection of workers' rights and well-being 👀💪.
