Voices such as Caryn Franklin are bringing the issue to debate and on 3rd March 2011 Crossbencher Baroness Young of Hornsey led a debate on supporting the ethical and sustainable fashion and clothing industry. She put forward the argument that if UK citizens can get tax breaks on energy efficient cars and other sustainable products why cant they use tax breaks on ethical fashion? This would make high street stores much more willing to become ethical and sustainable as materials can prove expensive. It is an issue increasingly talked about and becoming a bigger problem with time.
This will most probably effect the fashion world as we go into it so I need to research into the subject as much as possible and keep up to date with news and issues, worldly and fashion. Also need to keep aware and up to date with changes in companies and look out for fair-trade and ethical clothing within shops and industry. This is so if companies I want to apply for jobs at become ethical or have ethical views I can relate and understand them fully and be ready to work with this as an ethic.
