A look at fast fashion and its impact on the environment and social justice, perfect for middle grade classrooms Did you ever think about where your jeans come from? How about the people who made your T-shirt, or what happens to the clothes you grow out of when you're done wearing them? The fabrics clothes are made of, the way they are designed and sewn and shipped around the world, and the way we consume them and get rid of them--every step in this process has a big impact on our environment, on the people who work in clothing factories, and on our cultures. This nonfiction book shows us how the clothes we wear--and throw away--every day are made, and what that means for our planet and for people around the world.

*NYTBR Paperback Row Selection * The Independent's Best Fashion Book on Sustainability* An investigation into the damage wrought by the colossal clothing industry and the grassroots, high-tech, international movement fighting to reform it What should I wear? It’s one of the fundamental questions we ask ourselves every day. More than ever, we are told it should be something new. Today, the clothing industry churns out 80 billion garments a year and employs every sixth person on Earth. Historically, the apparel trade has exploited labor, the environment, and intellectual property—and in the last three decades, with the simultaneous unfurling of fast fashion, globalization, and the tech revolution, those abuses have multiplied exponentially, primarily out of view. We are in dire need of an entirely new human-scale model. Bestselling journalist Dana Thomas has traveled the globe to discover the visionary designers and companies who are propelling the industry toward that more positive future by reclaiming traditional craft and launching cutting-edge sustainable technologies to produce better fashion. In Fashionopolis, Thomas sees renewal in a host of developments, including printing 3-D clothes, clean denim processing, smart manufacturing, hyperlocalism, fabric recycling—even lab-grown materials. From small-town makers and Silicon Valley whizzes to such household names as Stella McCartney, Levi’s, and Rent the Runway, Thomas highlights the companies big and small that are leading the crusade. We all have been casual about our clothes. It's time to get dressed with intention. Fashionopolis is the first comprehensive look at how to start.

Que vais-je porter ? C’est l’une des questions fondamentales que nous nous posons chaque jour. Aujourd’hui, l’industrie textile produit 80 milliards de vêtements par an et emploie une personne sur six sur terre. Historiquement, le commerce du vêtement a accumulé les profits en bafouant les droits du travail, de l’environnement et de la propriété intellectuelle. Au cours des trois dernières décennies, avec le déploiement simultané de la fast fashion, de la mondialisation et de la révolution technologique, ces abus se sont multipliés de façon exponentielle. Nous avons grand besoin d’un tout nouveau modèle, plus humain. Dana Thomas a parcouru le monde pour rencontrer des créateurs visionnaires et des entreprises qui sont en train de propulser l’industrie vers un avenir plus positif en revenant vers l’artisanat traditionnel ou en développant des technologies durables de pointe afin de rendre la mode plus vertueuse. Dans « Fashionopolis », elle met en lumière le renouveau du secteur à travers un ensemble de développements technologiques, comme l’impression de vêtements en 3-D, le traitement du denim plus respectueux de l‘environnement, la fabrication intelligente, l’hyperlocalisme, le recyclage des tissus et même la fabrication de matériaux en laboratoire.
