The “Fast Fashion” exhibition also shows the suffering of animals in the clothing industry.
“Fast Fashion. The dark side of fashion” sheds light on the background to the globalized textile industry. It deals with production mechanisms, economic and social aspects, but also with environmental issues.
At the end of the exhibition, the well-known Swiss cartoonist Ruedi Widmer explores the difficulties of defining what slow fashion actually is and how to find one’s way through the jungle of countless quality labels, some of which are not very meaningful.
The exhibition also includes the reports “Wool production in the USA and Australia” and “Angora rabbit wool production in China”.
The exhibition will take place from October 26, 2016 to June 5, 2017 at the Textile Museum St. Gallen. You can find more information under this link.
