Fashionopolis (Young Readers Edition)
A look at fast fashion and its impact on the environment and social justice, perfect for middle grade classroomsDid 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.

Fashionopolis
*NYTBR Paperback Row Selection * The Independent's Best Fashion Book on Sustainability * Ralph Nader's Top Ten of the Year*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.

Unfair Fashion
»Was soll ich anziehen?«, fragen wir uns jeden Morgen. »Etwas Neues!«, sagt die Bekleidungsindustrie. Sie produziert dafür jährlich 80 Milliarden Kleidungsstücke. Immer billiger und ohne Rücksicht auf die Umwelt und die etwa 1,3 Milliarden Menschen, die sie beschäftigt.Tag für Tag kaufen Abermillionen Menschen Kleidung, ohne dabei einen einzigen kleinen Gedanken an die Folgen ihres Kaufes zu verschwenden. Seit der Erfindung der Webmaschine vor fast 250 Jahren hat sich die Mode zu einem schmutzigen, skrupellosen Geschäft entwickelt, bei dem auf Kosten der Menschen und der Erde reichlich Gewinne eingefahren werden. Und immer waren Sklaverei, Kinder- und Gefangenenarbeit ein fester Bestandteil ihrer Wertschöpfungskette - bis zum heutigen Tag.In ihrem akribisch recherchierten Buch analysiert Dana Thomas messerscharf die Sünden der globalen Fashionindustrie. Und sie beschreibt die sich formierende Gegenbewegung zur »Fast Fashion«: visionäre Unternehmen, die Mode nachhaltig produzieren und mit ihren Innovationen die Branche in eine positivere Zukunft führen können. Es ist dafür noch nicht zu spät!

Deluxe
Dana Thomas's Deluxe: How Luxury Lost its Lustre goes deep inside the workings of today's world of profit margins and market share to discover the real meaning of 'luxury'. Fashion may be fabulous, but what's the true price of luxury? From the importance of fashion owners, to red carpet stars and the seasonal 'must-have' handbags, Dana Thomas shows how far illustrious houses have moved from their roots. Thomas witnesses how these 'luxury' handbags are no longer one in a million, discovers why luxury brand clothing doesn't last as long, and finds out just who is making your perfume. From terrifying raids on the Chinese sweat shops to the daunting chic of Paris workshops, from the handcrafting and economics of early-twentieth century designers to the violent truth behind the 'harmless' fakes, Deluxe goes deep into the world of extravagance, and asks: where can true luxury go now?> Daily Telegraph> The New York Times> Guardian> The Times Dana Thomas is now European Editor for Portfolio following twelve years as the cultural and fashion writer for Newsweek in Paris. She has written about style for the New York Times Magazine since 1994, and has contributed to various publications including the New Yorker, Harper's Bazaar, Vogue and the Financial Times.
