It becomes clear that the fashion industry, and the part we play in it as consumers, is at a transitional moment in history. Old systems are being broken apart and rebuilt and there is a radical reinvention underway. It’s exciting! But, it comes with much uncertainty. There is no silver bullet, no single thing that is going to fix the ethical paradoxes at the root of fashion’s moment of reckoning. But there are ideas.
