      @@MaratFord I've wondered that too. In my family we tend to donate to charity shops / goodwill. I imagine there's a psychological element to asking if friends and family want a hand-me-down, so it might be easier or less embarrassing to just throw away.

      @@JohnSheppardEwTube Thanks John! The most difficult aspect comes from the fact that Zara is, by and large, doing well. It makes my job more challenging because, to broad audiences, a company that's "basically fine" isn't always as exciting to read about as a company that's on the brink of collapse or preparing a landmark IPO. So I wanted to make sure the story we told had an implicit and obvious reason to exist, which was (in case it actually wasn't obvious): here's a successful company you've heard of, but with a fascinating business model you may not have, and it's facing mounting challenges it'll need to adapt to in order to maintain its track record. The unexpectedly fun part was probably going out to Zara's headquarters to film all the on-location and in-office footage you see in the film, such as the photo studios and designers at work.

    Hear me out im not advocating for zara or any other fast fashion conglomerate but what I'm saying is whenever i see these type of videos/articles it's hard not to think the so called "luxury brands" are behind them, because while i agree that fast fashion companies produce low quality products that damage the environment but one would argue that nike, adidas and other similar brands produce at similar quantities, using cheap labour also causing harm to the environment. They have somehow managed to escape the "fast fashion" status branding themselves as sports and lifestyle but my thing is they are dropping new products every other day so contrary to what they want us to believe the world does not have a fast fashion problem we have a consumerism problem

      I agree with you. I am a millennial, and l grew up in an economically thriving african country. We had means but l remember my mum teaching me how to darn my socks and clothes when needed. When the toothpaste tube was almost done, we would cut it up and reach to the bottom coz there was plenty there. And l need to repeat, We were not poor ! But now, as an adult living in Europe,my coworkers laughed when l cut my hand cream to reach the cream at the bottom. I quote,'That's granny behaviour'. I felt bad, but l think that maybe we should go back to those granny behaviours. Sew, hand wash delicate items and buy less.

    How is it entirely the fault of ZARA and H&M to dump your clothes after wearing them for less than 3 months? ZARA's quality for their pants, jackets, and most items is fairly good and I have clothing from them that I've worn over a 100 times in 5+ years! If you're the sort of person who watches fashion "influencers" and their "haul" videos and feel pressured to update your wardrobe to the very latest... that's on YOU! Consumers are to be blamed.

    Consumers are the problem. Brands like Zara are responding to demand. So the answer to “sustainable fast fashion” is not solely with the brands - WE ALSO NEED TO SHOP DIFFERENTLY. affordable fashion not fast fashion is where the equilibrium lies. Buy smart. Look for quality pieces that will last; buy trends with more consideration, remove the sigma of ‘hand me downs’ - passing clothes to friends or family is a great way to keep items in circulation and not on a landfill. Some of my fav items I got from my sister.

    Frankly, the only kind of fashion I care about is the fashion I need for squatting on a stove when I'm alone at home.

    What do you think about this revolutionary idea of buying high quality clothing that will last a lifetime , take care of your clothing , actually enjoy the clothing as it is very well made and you pick it carefully.

      Nobody wants that. You're wealthy enough you wear your luxury high quality item 3 times and you're the talk of town. You're a regular person hanging around your colleague's and they remark that you're always wearing the same things.

    Agreed that there is an overconsumption of cheap fashion in general but at least public companies such as Zara have to answer to the environmental issues at hand and instill some sort of policies to address the problems at hand while (as this video states) Chinese companies like SHEIN are bigger problems due to the fact that the Chinese govt heavily subsidizes these large-scale business with 0 f@##@$cks given to the worldwide environmental impact (amongst other things better left for another discussion) and once again entering the world stage but playing by their own rules - especially since they can provide cheap goods to a wide segment of price-conscious / consumer-driven / eco-blind consumers....

    I am not buying from Zara for over 4 years now. Quality has been much worse for years, and I just refuse to invest my money in that sh!t. Although, I have to give them credit for the design, but that's all. And I know that shein have the same design/materials and you can find there not a dupe, but the exact same garment. They all have the same factories/suppliers. I love secondhand and sustainable fashion

    I'll believe there's progress happening when I actually see it happen. There are hundreds of companies constantly making claims of wanting to be better and do better and then continuing on the way they have been because the "profits for me, not for thee" rhetoric is so ingrained. Zara needs to put their money where their mouth is, but I'm cynical they'll actually follow up.

    Still can't overlook the deterioration of the quality and creativity of these affordable fashion chains. Both Zara and H&M were my go-to's, but i rarely buy pieces from either now as they've gotten super boring, are poorly made and costs more. I've never been one to throw away clothes after a few wears, I still own and wear pieces i bought a decade ago. As far as I can tell, fashion has been on a steady decline as of late.

    "The stores are getting bigger"... Comment that "Part of the reason is ecommerce rising" has nothing to do with it, since then next comment is, "Zara lets you try on clothes and have more personal experience"... That has ALWAYS been the case.. At least in Europe, people tend to go and try clothes before buying, they don't view it as catalogue, as suggested in video.

    I simply do not think it is possible to produce clothing in large volumes at a global scale and truly be sustainable, because as long as there are many different companies doing this same thing, we produce way more than is consumed and the excess will turn into waste. This essentially goes for any industry manufacturing goods. The only way towards sustainability is de-growth and deglobalisation

    What I don't like about Zara is their sizing. They don't have pants for petite people. Like in Europe petite people exist too. Their pants are just too long. That's why I prefer H&M & Next.
