☆ What is fast fashion, and why is it so controversial?

But while cheap chic may seem like the way to go, the fast fashion industry sees clothing pushed out on a scale that is even too large for most consumers to keep up with. Why is fast fashion so popular? Fast fashion accounts for “quick designs, quick manufacturing, quick marketing, quick retailing — it doesn’t leave the time to consider these bigger needs, like ethical considerations or rights of workers,” Osnes said. “The planet is on fire, and the truth is the fashion industry aids in a percentage of that.”Is ‘sustainable fashion,’ a viable alternative? But shop responsibly… try to use your budget to buy one good quality item,” Arya said, instead of a glut of fast fashion basics.

☆ Why it's now easier for student loan borrowers to get rid of their debt in bankruptcy court
  + stars: | 2023-11-20 | by ( Annie Nova | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
Richard Levine | Corbis News | Getty ImagesFor decades, it was nearly impossible for student loan borrowers to walk away from their debt in bankruptcy court. Congress has set a high bar for discharging student loan debt in bankruptcy. Under the new process, student loan borrowers complete a form to assist the government in evaluating their discharge request. "It makes it easier for student loan borrowers to qualify for bankruptcy discharge by clearly setting out the policy," said higher education expert Mark Kantrowitz. Federal student loan borrowers have several ways to reduce their debt burden, including payment plans with $0 monthly payments and economic hardship and unemployment deferments.

☆ Tell-all book lifts the lid on troubled beauty brand Glossier
  + stars: | 2023-09-12 | by ( Leah Dolan | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
Glossier, a direct-to-consumer cosmetics company launched in 2014 by US businesswoman Emily Weiss, pioneered this new aesthetic. At Glossier, beauty marks were celebrated, freckles were lionized and makeup application became as free form as finger painting. Beyoncé, Serena Williams, Michelle Obama and Reese Witherspoon have all been pictured wearing the makeup brand to red carpet events like the Oscars and The Grammys. For Meltzer, the brand fell victim to something that often trips up companies leading the zeitgeist: an evolving landscape. But “Glossy” isn’t just a beauty brand biography — it’s a forensic cross-examination of an era-defining company and how it embodied a moment in wider culture.
