Draft:Anti-Capitalist Fashion From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigationJump to search

Anti-capitalist fashion is an ideology that is founded upon developing anti-capitalist[1] as well as socially and ecologically-conscious alternatives to the manufacturing and production processes[2] of fashion. This ideology also aims to shed light on the relationship between capitalism and the fashion industry. Anti-capitalist fashion seeks to expose the harmful effects capitalism and fashion have on global consciousness, the treatment of garment workers in sweatshops[3], and the devastation it wages on the environment[4]. Hoskins defines this ideology stating, "In Stitched Up, anti-capitalist means the rejection of the capitalist system as a whole because it is the systemic cause of sweatshops, child labour, environmental devastation and alienation." (8) Anti-capitalist fashion strives to create alternatives to the current fashion manufacturing and production processes that are rooted in ethical treatment of workers and the environment.
