This year, we tackled some of fashion trickiest, stickiest subjects. We goo-be-goned them, as best we could. I’m referring to designer copyright, luxury pricing, the real costs of fast fashion, body diversity and bad moods.
I’ve included the most compelling topics in the slideshow below, but then there’s moar, moar, moar on the second page. Don’t miss any of it!
Keep going onto the next page!
