- Dangerous working conditions for workers making the clothes
- Some workers not being paid for their work at all
- Cheap, synthetic, non-biodegradable fabrics that do significant harm to the environmental
- Brands that are not transparent in their processes
Slow Fashion champions:

- Thrift shopping
- Swapping
- Sharing
- Minimalism
- Making clothes by hand
