2 years tomorrow will be the anniversary of the devastating Rana plaza building collapse in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Since the horrific event, fashion revolution day was created in honour of the 1133 garment makers that were killed during the catastrophe, and it has now become a day for everybody to reflect and realise the welfare of the workers who make the clothes we wear. It is said to be one of the most fatal garment factory accidents in modern history.
The annual day aims to raise awareness of the true cost of fashion and for those who are interested and involved in creating a more sustainable future in fashion. 71 countries are now involved and people are encouraged to take a selfie showing the label on their clothes and ask the designer or brand #whomademyclothes.
So whether it being wearing a piece of clothing inside out, using the hashtag or attending one of the events happening (check out the website, fashion revolution.org for more info) it is important to make people aware of Fashion Revolution Day #FASHREV #WHOMADEMYCLOTHES
