His comment that no one looks at curvy women is a lot of ****. - sylvie Wed, 14 Oct 2009 04:38:10 +0100 http://www.ecofashionworld.com/Kim/CONSUMERS-ARISE.html#comment-131 "I don't think you can compare countries. You're just as likely to have a sweatshop down the road here in London in the east end as you are in China, India or Bangladesh. One of the best factories I've come across in the world was in China. One of the worst factories I've come across in the world was in China." I think this view needs to be challenged because it does not take account of free hospitals, schools, pensions, unemployment pay and a legal system that is paid out of taxes in London factories and does not have to be paid in China. It is a view of a sweatshop that seems to mean "X% worse than the average in the area" and no more. It is a view that you might expect of a trade association for Chinese exporters, but no more. - Veganline.com/news (J Robertson) Tue, 13 Oct 2009 00:56:28 +0100 http://www.ecofashionworld.com/Kim/CONSUMERS-ARISE.html#comment-128 When people shop they do so because it is a luxury. Ethical fashion can be just as luxurious as other brands - it doesn't have to mean that you can't find a variety of styles. In fact, the quality of the garments is often much better. It's about realising that consumerism doesn't have to be a selfish act, it can benefit others and ethical fashion needs to become a standard, rather than an option.
