Slow fashion

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
The subject is relevant to sustainability, and is specifically about something tangible that most people on a college campus could likely do to live more sustainably in their own lives. It's a C ranked article, so there's room for improvement. It's part of Wikiproject Environment and Wikiproject Fashion. There is very little conversation on the talk page.

Evaluate the article
The lead summary is poorly written, and could do with better phrasing, as well as leaving some details for the article body. There are a number of issues with the construction and phrasing of the article body, but I'm going to leave that be for now in favor of focusing on the bibliography. The bibliography appears to be robust at first glance, with 35 sources cited, however many of them have issues, including being primary sources, article and blog posts promoting things, and certain publishers which are known for less than robust fact checking. Based on the sources that don't make Wikipedia's cut, I'm questioning some of the sources that appear at a glance to be decent, so I'll be doing a more in depth look at those as well, and will hopefully be able to find better sources to replace what will likely have to be cut.
