After listening to the lecture by Lilia Yip, it opened my eyes regarding the situation of harsh treatments of labourer and the dire conditions they are in. The fashion industry can be cruel much like any other industries, and people are becoming more aware of what they are using these day and have made an effort to do something to improve or change. Instead of simply forcing change on the industry itself, we are able to make changes on our part as well, one of which is to understand where our apparels come from and be sustainable.
From the activity we did during that lesson, I realized I am actually not as sustainable in my daily life as I thought I was. I've learned quite a few designers and brands that supports the sustainable fashion movement like Issey Miyake and Suzanne Lee, and inspiring to see how they promote sustainability in their designs in different ways.
