Fashion Revolution Week has come to an end for another year and I hope you would agree that the #WhoMadeMyClothes campaign was a great success. Fashion Revolution has described this year as their “noisiest and most inspiring yet!”
We would like to thank everyone who participated in our Show Your Label campaign. It has been really interesting to be able to engage with a variety of different brands and to find out more about where their clothes are manufactured.
As a part of the campaign, we contacted brands that we at Bridge & Stitch love and wear daily. I am delighted to say that we had a few responses from brands such as Pull & Bear and Paisie London.
Whilst it was exciting for us to be able to have the opportunity to interact with our favourite brands, this was also a great achievement for the Fashion Revolution campaign as a whole. The fact that well-known, high street brands are more willing to be transparent about their supply chain and are recognising the importance of this is a step in the right direction when it comes to ensuring a fairer, safer fashion industry.
However, just because Fashion Revolution Week is over, it doesn’t mean that we have to keep quiet and stop the fight for transparency. We are the voice for victims and survivors of Rana Plaza and for garment workers all over the world who work in unsafe, unfair conditions. It is important that we speak for them and ensure that we prevent anything like the Rana Plaza disaster from happening again.
In case you missed it, head over to our Instagram @bridgeandstitch to see how we got involved in Fashion Revolution Week and for more information on the brands we contacted and what we found out.
